This project is an ongoing effort to offer uninterrupted perspectives from dancers in our community. Utilizing the live video feature, dancers & educators can address the dance community on any subject they wish. The focus is to allow the words of other professionals without conflict, so that voices on any matter can be heard.   No advertising , attacking, or conversation redirects are allowed during these videos. It is up to the speaker to allow or address questions during their time.

​

Live videos can be made at any time in the network, however you must apply here to make your live video an official part of the series! We began this series with a focus on the Black Lives Matter Movement, allowing personal experiences & philosophy on dance to be shared with members of The Dance World Network. This project will continue as special live events covering many subjects. If you have a perspective you'd like to offer, Fill out the  form at the bottom of the page! Subjects can include:

​

​

Dance History

​

Cultural Influences & Experiences in Dance

​

Recent experiences or Current Events in Dance

​

We Are Still in Need of Admins!

Admins of Dance World Network serve a range of functions. While some admins will  fill the common role of maintaining order and quality in the group posts, we are seeking leaders that can serve as a point of perspective in behind the scenes discussions on content & conflicts.Using particular backgrounds in dance, this will help us make informed decisions with respect for many genres in mind, allowing fairness toward all aspects of dance and a consistent presence of dance styles in content posts.  The (still growing) list of genres currently in need of admin presence are:

​

​

Ballroom

African Dance

​

Commercial Jazz

​

Irish Dance

​

Bollywood

​

Lyrical

​

If you'd like to be considered for an admin role in one of these fields or in another subject, feel free to fill out the form at the bottom of the page. We seek professionals with experience in  dance education that can inform without bias.
