Alessandra Bucciarelli

Alessandra Bucciarelli is an Italian International Standard and Ten Dance competitor who represented Italy at the highest levels of competitive ballroom dance in the 1990s and 2000s. Her documented international career is inseparable from her partnership with William Pino, with whom she registered as a competitive couple beginning in May 1996.

Bucciarelli and Pino moved quickly into serious international competition. In 1996 alone, WDSF records show them placing fourth in the Adult Ten Dance World Cup at Wettingen, winning the Adult Standard World Cup at St. Pölten, and earning third place in the Adult Standard International Open in Vienna—results that demonstrated both their versatility across multi-dance formats and their emerging strength in Standard. The partnership's profile widened in 1997 when they earned the silver medal in Standard at the World Games in Lahti, bringing them into one of the era's most visible international multi-sport showcases.

Their competitive peak came in 1998 and 1999, when Bucciarelli and Pino won the WDSF-predecessor World Standard championship in both years. In the months surrounding the first title, they also won the Adult Standard Open in Vancouver in February 1998 and the Adult Standard European Cup in Tallinn in April 1998. These consecutive world titles secured Bucciarelli's place among the era's elite Standard dancers.

The partnership's final recorded federation competition came on 3 December 2005, when they won the Adult Standard European Championship in Mülheim. After stepping back from competitive federation dancing, Bucciarelli transitioned into adjudication. WDSF issued her a general-adjudicator license in 2007, authorizing her to judge Standard, Latin, Ten Dance, and Professional Division competitions. She served as an adjudicator at the Professional Division Standard World Championship in Bassano del Grappa in 2013. Her WDSF adjudicator license is now listed as inactive.
