It is with great pride that I present to you this first-ever DanceSport Open in the beautiful island paradise of Cebu City Philippines. The advantages you gain from this event is two-fold: First, the Cebu Open presents opportunities for you DanceSport aficionados in increasing your IDSF ranking points and gaining cash awards and medals; Second, the event falls on the same week as of the 2005 South East Asian Games where DanceSport will significantly make its debut; For the first time DanceSport will be included in a sporting event of such caliber, and who knows, this might augur the inclusion of DanceSport in the Beijing Olympics of 2008. Your being there will help convince the International Olympic Committee heads of the viability of such inclusion.
So what else would hold you back? See you in Cebu! Mabuhay!
