This is clearly an archive of dance moves, hence the name "Dance Move Archive", but you can find more here than just a couple of new moves to add to your repertoire. We've included historical background, video instructions, practice tunes and a couple of interesting factual tid-bits so that this isn't merely a standard list of dance moves.

​

You may ask why there's a need for such a comprehensive collection; the answer is simply because we believe dance can change the world. Don't laugh! It's true. Dancing is an act that not only reflects culture but is "culture-making". It has been used to fight oppression, to settle conflicts and of course as a means of expression for those who are verbally stifled. But more than all of this, dance connects us to the past. When we dance the tango we can feel the passion of those who created it. While watching swing dance we can see how society valued interactions and their intricacies.

In the end, whether you're like us and believe dance is revolutionary or you just enjoy gettin' down every now and then, this archive has something of value for all of us.
