World 10 Dance Champions
This page lists the official World Champions – Professional 10-Dance of the World Dance Council (WDC). The championships are authorized and organized under the auspices of the WDC.
The World Championships have been held annually for Ten Dance since they were organised by the ICBD in 1980 (with the exception of 1982). The ICBD was renamed WD&DSC and renamed again as the WDC. It represents all the major professional DanceSport countries.
The dances covered in the Ten Dance are the five International Ballroom (Standard) dances: waltz, foxtrot, quickstep, tango and Viennese waltz, along with the five International Latin Dances: rumba, samba, paso doble, cha-cha-cha and jive, as defined in ballroom dancing terms.
