Secretary: Annika Berkelaar
Hi there! My name is Annika, I’m a second year biology student at the WUR and I’ve been WuBDA’s secretary since April. I joined the association less than a year ago because I wanted to try something new, and I always thought ballroom dancing looked pretty cool. This turned out to be one of the best choices I’ve ever made because I absolutely love it! I particularly enjoy jive and tango, but I think all dances are lovely.
Some other things about me: besides dancing to music, I also love making it myself. I play a little bit of everything, but mostly guitar (my telecaster is my baby). I also like to be busy with my hands, drawing or crocheting. And of course, as a biology student I love to be outside looking at plants, or sticking my hands in the dirt searching for bugs.
Come find me after class or during one of WuBDA’s activities if you ever want to chat about any of these things, I’m always up for a good conversation! Hope to see you there 🙂

Treasurer: Chenxin Luo
Hello everyone, my name is Chenxin. I’m a master student in Plant Biotechnology and I’ve been with WuBDA as a beginner dancer since September, 2023. Being a part of WuBDA definitely adds so much joy to my WUR experience, thus I decided to join the board to serve this community better.
Besides my passion for dancing, there’re so many things I enjoy. I love all sorts of miniature crafting, especially origami! Reading, writing, aquarium, volleyball…oof, please forgive me if I start to talk non-stop coming to those topics. Anyway, don’t hesitate to say hi if seeing me around. I Hope to dance with you soon!

Public relations: Leonard Weese
Hello everyone, my name is Leonard, and I am a bachelor’s student in Soil, Water and Atmosphere in my third year. I have enjoyed ballroom dancing since I started doing it in high school, so joining WuBDA last year was the obvious choice of sports association.
Since April I have taken up the role of Commissioner of Public Relations and it has been a lot of fun!
I hope, as board member, I can make everyone feel comfortable and welcome in WuBDA so they can fully enjoy the dance classes and activities!
Besides dancing, I sometimes play the piano and enjoy cooking simple but tasty meals with and for my friends.
If you have questions about anything WuBDA or just in general want to chat, feel free to come to me! I’m always open to get to know my fellow dancers a bit more 🙂
