Global Mindset
DanceSport Confidence is aligned with both DanceSport Australia and the World DanceSport Federation (WDSF), the peak sporting body for DanceSport Globally. It is also the formal partner of International Olympic Committee. As such, the events and required compliance are held at the highest global standards. Athletes will be formally recognised on the WDSF website from Australia. Over time their world ranking will change as they enter more events.
