Challenge around World Dance Day - from now until mid-May

As the German Dance Association, we would like to initiate a joint dance action with the nationwide TogetherWeDance call for World Dance Day on 29 April and thus set an example for community, democracy and diversity! We want to promote social discourse and cohesion with you. 

For all of us who love this art form, dance is an elixir of life, social interaction and non-verbal communication, an ancient ritual, a collective experience, the joy of movement, a language that transcends cultures, fleeting beauty, ballet, hip hop, TikTok and so much more! 
National, ethnic, religious and cultural attributions are often attached to the body without reflection. Dance in its many forms can be an artistic means of shaking up attributions so that each individual is seen as a human being.

We therefore invite you to take part in a joint campaign by dance professionals, politicians and administrators to mark World Dance Day around the 29 April 2024 with a dance video.

Take part in the Dance Challenge on Instagram, dance with us and our board member Dhélé Agbetou and set an example for social cohesion and diversity.

Dance creates cohesion: TogetherWeDance! 

Be part of it! We look forward to your dance videos!
