In 25 years, Romanian dancers have won 11 gold medals and 18 bronze ones at the world championships. The competitors who have won at least 8 world titles have been awarded in a ceremony on October 15, 2016.

Vasile Gliga, the president of the Romanian Federation of Dance Sport stated that 15-20 years ago Romania did not even have representatives in competitions. Today, however, our dancers are amongst the best in the world. This is not sheer luck, as this achievement has meant hard work and talent, help from extraordinary coaches and support from parents and friends.
