One of the German top couples, Simon Reuter & Julia Niemann, decided to turn Professional. They danced together in the Amateur category since August 2002. One of their best results was the 3rd place in the final of Amateur Rising Stars Standard at the Blackpool Dance Festival in 2005 and the bronze medal in the IDSF European Cup Standard in 2006. They won the Amateur Rising Stars Standard at the German Open 2005 and danced in the finals of the German Championships later that year. Last year they danced in several IDSF competitions finals including Czech Open, Croatia Open and Varadinum Dance Festival and more. See the list of results we recorded in our database.

Julia and Simon said: "We now want to turn Pro to open a new chapter in our life and we are looking forward to new challenges and opportunities. We want to thank our federation for the support and the dancesportinfo.net team for all the news and informations during the last years."

Good luck to Simon and Julia for the future!
