They are one of the most beloved swing and boogie woogie dancers out there.
These two have the charm, the personality, and the good looks that attract audiences.
On their official YouTube channel, Sondre And Tanya shared a video of their first boogie woogie world cup victory.
When you want the dancing world to take notice, you have to take advantage of being on the world stage.
If you’re lucky enough to make it of course.
Then there’s having to deal with the pressure.
It is literally a huge opportunity. This is borderline make or break.
Sondre and Tanya come running out, their shorter builds distinguishable from other notable dancers.
These two have that forever young vibe to them, from the way they dress, to the way they smile, and how they execute their dance moves.
The flurry of footwork, the constant bouncing and dizzying spins you’re seeing here are to be their trademark moves.
It’s not a Sondre and Tanya dance without those!
“The Most Watchable Dance Couple on the Planet.”
Says a viewer who is probably right about this.
Now aside from the thousands of hours in practice these two incredible dancers have spent, it’s the upbringing that’s wired their bones to be such amazing dancers.
Sondre was born and raised in Dombås, in the Dovre municipality, Innlandet county, Norway but he currently lives in Warsaw, Poland.
This talented young man started dancing at the tender age of five.
When he turned eight, he took part in his first Swing dance competitions and at thirteen began teaching locally
. In 2007, he went for Norway’s got Talent and from then on, took off as a dancing superstar.
Tanya was born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine, but also lives in Warsaw, Poland.
This pretty lady began with classical dance at the age of four.
When she turned nine, she switched to acrobatic Rock-n-Roll. Tanya’s expanded her arsenal of dances now doing Modern jazz, Contemporary dane, Boogie Woogie and Lindy-hop.
Just look at the timing, the counting, and the stunning moves Sondre and Tanya are pulling off.
It’s a sub 2 minute dance but if they went on for a half hour, no one would have minded!
This was such a fantastic display of dancing.
It was flawless and I’m sure the other dancers in the back knew they were in trouble.
This is how you bag the gold!
Sondre and Tanya were hungry for the victory and it showed.
Watch them win the championship in the video below!
