Dear Dancers, Enthusiasts, and Supporters,
On behalf of the entire organizing team, thank you for making the inaugural Dancesport Excellence Awards Gala and our Second Annual Gala on January 10, 2026 such resounding successes. Your presence and support helped turn our vision into reality, and I am truly grateful.
It was a magical time filled with breathtaking performances, inspiring moments, and the shared joy of celebrating excellence in Dancesport. Every detail of these memorable galas was possible because of dedicated individuals like you, and I appreciate the role each of you played in making them unforgettable.
A special thank you to our sponsors — your generosity and commitment made these events possible. Your belief in the vision of the Dancesport Excellence Awards Gala has helped elevate the entire Dancesport community in Ontario. We value your partnership and look forward to continuing this journey together.
I would also like to extend heartfelt thanks to the Mayor of Markham, Frank Scarpitti, for his attendance and support. His presence helped shine a spotlight on our community and meant a great deal to everyone involved.
We were also honored to host a special performance by world-renowned stars Franco Formica and Oxana Lebedew, whose artistry added an unforgettable highlight to the evening.
To all the nominated couples, congratulations and our deepest thanks. Your artistry, dedication, and passion were truly inspiring. Whether you took home an award or not, you contributed immensely to the beauty of this sport and to the success of the evenings.
Looking ahead, we are excited to announce the Third Annual Dancesport Excellence Awards Gala on January 9, 2027. We are committed to making it an even more spectacular celebration of artistry and talent, and we can’t wait to have you join us once again.
Thank you once again for being part of our journey. Your support means the world to me and to everyone who shares a passion for this beautiful sport. I look forward to seeing you next year.
