A new world champion!

Margie Volks, Line-Dancing World Champion

With the thrill of South Africa’s Rugby World Cup win still lingering, it’s thrilling to know that a South African from Cape Town has secured yet another World Champion title. Margie Volks was crowned World Champion in her category at the World Line-Dancing Competition during July. This competition, the leading global event for line-dancing, which is held in Blackpool in the UK, attracts top dancers from over 40 countries. With stiff competition from such a significant number of destinations, being crowned World Champion is no mean feat.

As a dancer with the Silverliners, a dance group run by Debbi Wienburg, Margie joined eight other dancers from Cape Town at  the competition. The group’s success in the competition resulted in a table full of medals and trophies – but the crowning glory was Margie’s World Champion title.
