I know the name of Michał Malitowski & Joanna Leunis, But I can't connect their faces.

Joanna was Slavik's partner when they won IDSF World amateur championship.

LEARNING TO FIGHTING FOR HEALTH
Joanna learned to fight for what she wants at a very young age. At the age of eight Joanna contracted a blood disease similar to leukaemia which kept her in bed for more than half a year. With determination she wanted to feel free in her body again and started to dance to obtain more control over her body. With the love and care of her mother and father she was stimulated to go and get what her heart desired and soon her dancing became her release.
Joanna was not easy on herself. Yes, she danced, and yes she became Belgium amateur champion but Joanna also demanded from herself to go to Grammar School and finish that at the highest possible level. Joanna knows how to get the maximum out of her talents!

WORLD CHAMPION AT 19 AND AT 21
Just being 19 Joanna already wore the crown of the world amateur champion together with Slavik Kryklyvyy. At the age of 21 she became also world champion South American Show dance together with Michael Malitowski.

who is Donnie Burns & Gaynor Fairweather ? I heard this name. But I don't know who it is.

Donnie Burns (Scotland) & Gaynor Fairweather (England)

They started dancing together in 1978 (January) as Professional They do not dance together anymore.

[SIZE=-1]Donnie Burns MBE and Gaynor Fairweather MBE are probably the biggest legend in the history of Latin American dancing. Formerly 14 times Undefeated World Professional Latin American Champions and 5 times Grand Slam winners, not to mention British Open Champions, UK Open Champions, etc. Donnie and Gaynor were awarded M.B.E. titles by the Queen in recognition of their most outstanding achievements for contemporary Latin American dancing.

In the movie "Shall we dance", the original Japanese version,
the funny Latin dancer with wig is imitating Donnie Burns as a parody.

Yes,should be her.I saw her danced with another 2 dancers(not slavik) . One is in the amateur,and win the champion. I was surprised ,because the man still can not compare with Bryan, jukka and Paul, but the lady she was as good as another professonl dancers. I am not very good to judge the woman dancers, I only can say, she is the very high level. So I am not surprise to see her to win the champion. Another time i saw her in the blackpool.maybe her partner is another Michel.
