Ferruggia - Koehler, GER The 2010 IDSF Grand Slam Finals take place once more in Shanghai, China. Today, 11 December, the world's best Standard couples fight it out for title and purse in what is the last major competition of the year.

Last year, it was the German couple Benedetto Ferruggia and Claudia Koehler who won the first ever Grand Slam event adjudicated with the new IDSF Judging System.

The IDSF Adjudicators will again grade the finalists in different component criteria

  • Posture
  • Balance and Coordination
  • Quality of Movement
  • Movement to Music
  • Partnering
  • Choreography and Presentation

on an absolute scale from one to ten to determine the winners in 2010.

IDSF Presidium Member Michael Eichert is on site and lets you know how things develop on the floor at the Luwan Stadium. John Fam of the IDSF Communication Commission has his camera trained on the action and provides you with the photographs.
