Who are the ADA?

The Australian Dance Adjudicators Association has been dedicated to fostering the growth and development of dancers across Australia since 1993.

We believe that a strong and positive dance community is vital to the success of the artform.

 

Our association is a non-political, not-for-profit organisation exclusively made up of members and financed by them as well. We value our members and strive to provide them with opportunity, training, support, and representation, so they can serve the dance world best.

Integrity, fairness, and respect are the cornerstones of our association.

 

We provide objective feedback to every dancer, irrespective of their skill level, maintaining a positive atmosphere at all events.

 

We celebrate the uniqueness of each dancer and are devoted to helping them unlock their full potential.
