The four new world class dancers completing this year's professional troupe are European cup winner Vito Coppola, Chinese National Champion Carlos Gu, former Under 21 British National Champion Lauren Oakley and Latin dance champion Michelle Tsiakkas.
Vito Coppola said of his new role: 'I am really excited to become part of this family. I cannot wait to start this new adventure and to challenge myself. Strictly sto arrivando! (or: Strictly I am coming!)'
Carlos Gu added: 'I'm thrilled to join Strictly and very excited to get started. It's a new chapter of my life and a new challenge as well. I'm absolutely ready to take on this journey and to shine.'
Former Under 21 British National Champion Lauren Oakley gushed: 'I've grown up watching Strictly, always hoping that one day I could be part of the best show on television, doing what I love the most.'
'Now that it's happening, it doesn't quite seem real. I can't wait to start this new sequined adventure and join this incredible family.'
Latin champ Michelle Tsiakkas said: 'Being a professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing has been my dream ever since I was a little girl.'
'I cannot believe my dream has come true! I'm so grateful to be joining this incredible family and I can't wait to step on that magical dance floor and give it my all!'
The upcoming series will be the first in three years to be broadcast without Covid measures, which forced bosses to introduce restrictions including 'bubbles' for training and limited audience numbers.
The celebrity competitors won't be confirmed until later in the year with the latest rumours including Channel 4 presenter Steph McGovern, Coronation Street star Kym Marsh and former footballerv Tony 'Donkey' Adams.
Meanwhile the show's head judge Shirley Ballas has hinted that in a modern twist, the new series could feature the show's first gender-fluid pairing.
