By Sabina Idayatova
Azerbaijani dancers took part at the World Championship in Copenhagen, Denmark, in various dance categories like hip-hop, electro-boogie, and break dance, Captain of The National Team Aziz Azizov said.
Azerbaijani team "Crazy Eyes" gained 4th place at the Hip-Hop competitions of the World Championship.
"It was a huge dance marathon and it was very interesting to
compete against them. We have become acquainted with them and have
exchanged contacts, and it was a tremendous experience. It is an
unforgettable experience for us. A very good incentive has appeared
for professional growth," national team members noted.
According to Azizov, who is also the president of the Association
of modern and social dances of Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijani team can
achieve even greater success.
"For the first time, Azerbaijani dancers took part in such
high-level competitions against strong dancers from different
countries -Denmark, Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Norway, Slovenia, the
Netherlands, South Africa, England, Romania, etc. Of course, many
would say that the boys participated in the tournament for the
first time and gaining fourth place in the world is very good. I
agree with that. But we can do better! And I promise a big change
in the near future, both in training the dancers and in the judging
system and the structure of our organization. This year we only
have one international tournament, the World Championship on Show
Dance, which will be held in late November in Germany," he
stated.
Azizov further noted that Azerbaijani dancers are currently
among the top five teams.
"And we will try to be the first. Want to thank those who supported
us and believed in us! Thank you!" Association President said.
