A LONG ROAD TO THE FINISH

GOC Youth 10-Dance

For the Youth age group, the GOC concluded with the physically demanding 10-Dance competition, spanning four rounds. A total of 47 couples from 16 countries took part; six couples from six different nations reached the final late in the evening.

At the top, Kristupas Mlinskas and Liepa Rudnickaite from Lithuania dominated by winning all ten dances. The pair had already placed second at the U21 European 10-Dance Championships in April. The reigning European Youth Champion was also present in Stuttgart – though not with his former partner. Patrick Berbece competed with his new partner Andreea Sturzinschi and immediately secured second place.

Artem Crivenco and Alexandrina Martinova danced their second GOC final this year and finished third. On the first day of the GOC, they had placed fifth in the Youth Standard final.

The DTV was represented in the Youth final by the German champions Nicolas Valentin Denius and Alisa Volkova, who finished fourth.
