Nikita Kruktunov and Rufina Muharanova, Omsk

Nikita and Rufina compete in the junior category (for children aged ten to thirteen) of the All Russia Ballroom Dance Championships. In Soviet times, ballroom dancing was not permitted: it was regarded as bourgeois and associated with the


negative influence of rock music, and even of hooliganism.
