DAVAO CITY — Two rising dance champions from Davao are set to bring pride to the country as they represent the Philippines in the prestigious World DanceSport Federation (WDSF) Youth Open this July in Vietnam.
Bhenz Rudolf Owen H. Semilla and Francheska Dezzly C. Darvin, standout members of the Tibungco Dancesport Team, have earned the honor of competing in the Youth A Standard category — a major international stage for young dancers.
The Philippine DanceSport Federation, Inc. (PDSFI) selected the duo after they topped their category in the 2024 PDSFI Ranking Points System. Their consistent performance and dominance in national competitions cemented their place as the top-ranked pair in the Youth A Standard division.
PDSFI announced that the top-ranked couples in both Latin and Standard divisions were given the privilege to represent the Philippines in international competitions — a move that highlights the federation’s commitment to recognizing and nurturing world-class Filipino talent.
“This opportunity is a testament to the dedication and discipline of our young dancers, as well as the high standards of our national ranking system,” the federation said in a statement.
The entire Philippine dancesport community is rallying behind Semilla and Darvin as they prepare to compete against the best young dancers from around the world. Their participation not only brings honor to Davao City, but also showcases the growing strength of grassroots dancesport development in Mindanao.
With passion, precision, and national pride, these two young Davaoeños are ready to make their mark on the global stage.(Bob Braceros)
