German Professionals to conduct doping tests

At the German Open Championships in Stuttgart, the German Dancesport Association (DTV) and the German Professional Dancesport Association (DPV) have decided that the professional dancers will be included in the coverage of the anti doping-rules of the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA). This means that doping tests at competitions and in practise time will be conducted for professionals, too.

Inclusion of the Professionals became possible after the corresponding regulations of both associations were harmonized during the last months.
