Winners in each category were awarded one month of free access to DSI TV by the World Para Dance Sport partner.

The platform has a catalogue of competitions, lectures and instructional videos.

Second- and third-place dancers received a 20 per cent discount voucher for the platform.

The online competition reached a total of 51 new athletes from 12 countries, with Australia and Spain represented for the first time.

"The online competition marks a new paradigm for our sport, where travel restrictions were no longer a hindrance for participation," said Camila Rodrigues, World Para Dance Sport manager.

"Instead, it offered an open door for new nationalities to join Para Dance Sport virtually.

"I would like to give a special thanks to athletes and their coaches, National Federations and National Paralympic Committees, adjudicators, DSI London and our Sport Technical Committee who made this competition possible."

This competition was created to encourage Para dancers to stay active during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Athletes had until March to submit their performances in video form to be judged by a panel of international adjudicators.
