Report of Dancing Italy and Sun of Italy (July 2016, Italy)

Dancing Italy and Sun of Italy, in July 2016 was a great success! We met with a lot of very talented and capable participants. We were very happy to see some of the participants for the second time in our competitions. The big surprise for us was the desire of Roberto Lori, chairman of the jury for choreography, performing an improvised routine with team PreoDrum. The Drums guys from Moscow played perfectly when Roberto was in the spontaneous movements of the genre. It is also important to note that we had to deliver two Grand Prix awards, as two participants were impressed our judges with their talent.
