Benedetto wrote: Due my continuously encreasing back problem, with great sadness combined with excitement for the future I want to announce my retirement from competitive career. At the moment I'm looking forward to a new chapter in my life as a dance teacher, judge and organiser of dance events to develop this special kind of art that I love. I would like to say thank you to my family who never stop believing in me, to all my teachers, mentors and friends who participated in this journey with me, who supported and inspired me during all these years. I also want to thank my lovely partner Orsolya for an amazing and unforgettable last 3 years. I wish to all competitors the very best in dancing and all they are dreaming of. Never stop to dream, never stop to believe!
Orsolya is looking for a dance partner to continue her career.
