Wilma and Victor Edlund The World DanceSport Federation (WDSF) has been producing coverage on the premier DanceSport events held under its auspices - and that of its Associate Members - for the past eight years. It started off with round-by-round videos that were uploaded to our YouTube channel DanceSport Total.

About four years ago, WDSF added another outlet in the form of a Vimeo on Demand platform from where quality recordings of the decisive stages of those championships and GrandSlam Series events that had full-blown TV productions attached were made available - behind a payment wall but at exceptionally fair rates.

Dancers' portraits and background pieces were included in these Vimeo on Demand productions together with in-depth interviews. In an effort to offer similar formats for free through DanceSport Total, we produced a number of short "storytelling" clips in Marseille, FRA. Let us know how you like them!

Here is one about 14-year-old Wilma and 17-year-old Viktor Edlund. The siblings tell us how Boogie Woogie plus other Swing dances got them hooked and how they made it to the World Championship - by watching YouTube clips.
