International Dance Day

First introduced in 1982 by the International Dance Council and now celebrated yearly on April 29th, the International Dance Day brings attention to the art of dance. It revels the universality of this art form that crosses all political, cultural and ethnic barriers and brings people together with a common language – Dance!

———————————————————————————————————————————–

“Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.” – Voltaire

———————————————————————————————————————————–

To celebrate the Dance Day we invite you to browse Dance & Performance Studies series. Visit series webpage and use code DPS15 at checkout to receive 25% discount on all titles within the series (valid for the next 30 days). Grounded in ethnography, this series explores dance, music and bodily movement in cultural contexts at the juncture of history, ritual and performance in an interconnected world.
