It was 1979 that I found my love for the Dance Sport. I was then eight years old and I´m no longer aware of what attracted me so much. It could have been the dancing itself, the many beautiful dresses or most likely both.

I was lucky enough to enter this sport and as an active Tournament Dancer I could even collect some important victories. My very personal success story includes victories in different Ballroom, Latin and 10 dances Regional Championships. 1990 I was in Italy to take part in the World Championship.

As I grew adult I decided to do a living of this sport. 1989 I began to learn dressmaking and after concluding my education I found work for several years in a Dance Studio in Berlin as a designer and dressmaker for ballroom dresses.

2002 I established my own business "Britta Gericke Tanz- und Textildesign". The charming and unique details in the dresses I create express may great passion for the Dance Sport.

Yours
