The National Dance Society was formed  to provide leadership in the delivery of dance and dance education, and  to further dance as an art form, as a support for academic success, and as a process for improving individuals’ health and wellness.  Our motto of Dance For All is founded in the belief that dance is an inclusive, health lifelong activity, that should be available to everyone.
