Its going to be a long time before dance has another couple with such strength and style. It's so hard not to watch them. Congratulations on a fabulously successful career!

[@lorettamemphis]

This couple is so classy. No one dances like them. They truly deserve every award, cause no one dances like them, they will be missed.

[@tracymelton4302]

The dance world will not be the same without them competing. They are simply the best. Yulia epitomises grace and style and her footwork is like no other dancers. They will be sorely missed. Every success and happiness for the future to you both and thank you very much for all the pleasure you have given to millions of people across the world. Xx

[@barbarahyatt7888]

Tracy Melton Are you saying they’re not going to dance anymore?

[@tracymelton4302]

No I am not saying they are not going to dance anymore but they will not not competing so we will not have the opportunity to see them like we currently do. They will be sorely missed.

Such massive talent , their performances are going to be viewed forever continuing to give us immense pleasure and make us recognize the difference between mediocre and superlative.Thank you and best of luck !

My absolutely favorite professional dancers. Followed them on KZbin for many years. So happy to know they are now taking time to further enjoy life together, in retirement. Will be greatly missed in the dance world. But wish them so much joy in this new chapter of their lives.

I discovered them late, but I enjoyed all their dances. I find them wonderful and very beautiful dancing. From Argentina my love and admiration for you Yulia and Ricardo.

Эта пара на сегодня - лучшие в истории латиноамериканской программы бальных танцев! Такой объём работы сделан за эти годы! Ни одна пара такой техникой исполнения как у Юли и Рикардо не обладает! Анатомически четкие движения, вложение чувств в каждый танец, невероятно эмоциональная подача движений... Их планку не достичь никому! Высочайший уровень! Такие только ОНИ! Бриллианты! Каждый танец - целая история! Каждый танец от Сердца, от Души, вложение себя без остатка! Богиня и Бог Латины! Лучшие! Лучшие! Самые Лучшие! ЗОЛОТЫЕ СТРАНИЦЫ! Колоссальный вклад в развитие латиноамериканской программы! Легендарные танцоры! Люблю их! Спасибо им! Все в нашей жизни когда- нибудь заканчивается и эта сказка подошла к завершению. Думаю у них получится воспитать не один десяток достойных учеников! Продолжение следует...

There will never be another woman dancer like Yulia in our lifetime, she is truly the queen! End of an amazing era.

[@joetesta3352]

UniquelyMade. its interesting to me that so many of the complements and admiration of this ultra successful partnership is so often directed only at Yulia. Its as if Riccardo doesn't exist. I cant recall another world champion couple that is spoken about in such a lop sided manner. It doesn't say balanced, equal partnership to me. Having said that, I couldn't agree more with your comment about Yulia. This lady is extraordinary and showed throughout her entire career that she can do it all, and supremely well.

[@chuckie102883]

Joe Testa Ricardo is great too BUT she is the star of the coupling, no woman moves like her that I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen hundreds of Ricardo’s but only one Yulia. I’m just keeping it real.

[@joetesta3352]

UniquelyMade. Please don't misunderstand me. I completely agree with your sentiments 100%. For me this will go down in the history books as the second most successful dancesport partnership in history, but will it be remembered in time as one of the all time truly great balanced and equal partnerships, Like a Donny and Gaynor or Corky and Shirley. Its an interesting one its for the future to decide I guess.

Lizz G So is Riccardo, they both compliment each other so beautifully. Yulia danced with Max for 5 years and only won just one tournament whereas once she started dancing with Riccardo they immediately had success and never looked back, proving it doesn’t matter how could you are you have to have the right partner that fits you perfectly, that’s what Riccardo does for Yulia, he is amazing.
