Below is the one published for Standard from 1959 through 2013. The International Council of Amateur Dancers (ICAD) was founded in 1957, the first World Champions crowned by the WDSF-predecessor organisation were Peter Eggleton and Diana Gradwell. Googling the names of the first Standard World Champions in history, we came up with a rather interesting article written by Peter Eggleton. Read it in the DanceArchives!
Here is the list of World Champions. Things have certainly changed from the early days. What? We let you draw your own conclusions!
