Damir Karaman

started dancing together in October of 1994, while the war in Bosnia was raging full force and Damir Karaman was required to be an active participant in the Bosnian army. Because private homes did not have any electricity, Damir and Nina trained at Damir's military base between military obligations. Even under such difficult conditions, hard work produced results and only after 6 months of training they achieved 1st place at the National Championship held in Zenica on May 20th, 1995. In order to participate in this competition, Nina and Damir got out of Sarajevo, which was under siege at that time, and walked for 24 hours crossing a mountain at night and risking their lives by being under constant fire from surrounding artillery. The following day they danced and won their 1st National Championship. From that day till the present they have been the National Champions six years in a row and have also won all National competitions in the past 6 years. They have shown their strong dedication and perseverance in international competitions as well. Despite their disadvantageous circumstances, (during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dance Sport made huge leaps forward throughout the rest of the World and Europe), they continue to gain admirable achievements and their dance career continues to move forward in a positive direction. For their exceptional contributions to the development of dance sport in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Nina and Damir received the highest award from Dance Sport Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Golden Statue.
