E. Degutis and U. Bliujūtė successfully passed all qualifying rounds of the European Championship and reached the final, where athletes from Denmark, Russia, Slovakia, Finland and Ukraine also competed. By the way, they reached the final with the fifth number, and in the final they managed to improve the result.

The ten dance program includes standard and Latin American dances. After the standard dance part, the Lithuanian athletes were fourth among the six finalist pairs, showing exactly the same result in the Latin American dance part.

During the whole day, Lithuanians walked on the parquet 34 times; Ten dance disciplines are considered to require the greatest stamina.

Einoras Degutis was happy with the result after a long championship day, he said it was a bit unexpected: “There are really strong competitors behind us. We all met for more than six months without hesitation, without seeing each other, it was interesting. “

Ugnė Bliujūtė also agreed with the partner: “Consequently, during the quarantine we successfully set priorities and objectives, this work paid off.”

Interestingly, under the current conditions, the athletes were not sure until the last minute whether the championship would take place, so they were no longer preparing for the European Championship, but simply wanted to advance.

“In the summer, we train very constantly at home in Gargždai, and we also participate in three training camps in Lithuania and one in Latvia,” said E. Degutis.

The reason for their success is that the young couple considers not only the calm process of formation, but also the romantic feelings that connect them.

After the day of the competition in Denmark, Einor and Ugnė went first in search of food. “We want to sit quietly and rejoice, enjoy,” said the Lithuanian dancers.

The result of E. Degutis and U. Bliujūtė was also enjoyed by the coach of the Gargždai club couple “Rolina”, where the duo, Irina Berankienė, danced: “Einor grew and became stronger in our club”

Throughout the night, the online broadcast of the European Championship was closely followed by the world standard dance champion Ieva Sodeikienė. He spared no praise for the young duo.

“It’s very, very good! In the discipline of ten in the final of the Lithuanian pair we did not have an infinitely long time. Although many experienced couples were approaching the final, something went wrong. It’s good that even such young athletes went to high-ranking competitions alone, made a huge leap and gave us all hope in this sad season. “

E. Degutis and U. Bliujūtė intend to start in the Lithuanian championship of separate disciplines. Now it will be possible to see them dancing from October 9 to 11 in Panevėžys.
