FREE EVENT: National Dance Day Celebration

Celebrate National Dance Day with Garden State Dance Arts!

Attendees will first do a short warm up and then learn the official National Dance Day routine together. This routine will be learned and performed by children and adults throughout the world to celebrate the day. You won't want to miss a memorable event like this!

Once we learn the routine, we will perform outside for parents & guests (if weather allows). 

This event is open to children and adults (minimum age 6) so bring a friend and join the fun!

NOTE: This event is FREE but space is limited. Attendees must RSVP.

What to wear: Attendees can wear anything they can comfortably dance in. Wear sneakers or shoes that can tie or velcro closed - no flip flops or slip ons for safety reasons. NOTE: students will be barefoot while in the dance room but if it is a nice day we may perform the routine outside in sneakers.

About National Dance Day....

Established in 2010 by American Dance Movement co-founder, Nigel Lythgoe, and Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, National Dance Day is an annual celebration dedicated to dance, that encourages Americans of all ages to incorporate dance into their lives. By creating a focused day of celebration to show support for dance as a valuable form of exercise and of artistic expression, American Dance Movement aims to educate the public about dance and its many benefits, as well as make dance accessible and inclusive to everyone.

American Dance Movement (ADM) believes that participation in dance connects the mind and body, promotes health and wellbeing, connects us with others and enables us to find joy through dance and movement. National Dance Day (NDD) is a day of celebrating dance, in all its forms, and takes place annually on the third Saturday in September.
