PETALING JAYA: Bernice Lu Teng Wong brought joy to Malaysia after bagging gold in the World Dance Sport Federation (WDSF) Adult Female solo Latin category in London last week.

She added that a lot of hard work went into refining her movements and executions to prepare for this year’s competition.

“I will continue to put effort into improving myself after this.

“My focus is on improving my execution and performance,” said Bernice, who is looking forward to performing in the Borneo Open International Championship and Convention (BOIDC) tournament in Kuching, Sarawak, this weekend.
