The professional international judges panel is always a guarantee of high prestige. It is composed of professionals from various organizations and styles, VIP judges, prominent personalities and holders of the titles of European Champion and World Champion.

The World Dance Championship is an international competition with a long tradition, where technique does not suppress the artistic value of the performance, and at the same time, artistic value takes into account the technique used "hand in hand". The scoring is fair thanks to the professional system of judging judges, and the role of influencing one judge is excluded.
