SUMMARY:National Ballroom Dance Week September 16-25\, 2022
DESCRIPTION:National Ballroom Dance Week September 16-25\nDancers\, contact the chapter nearest you for details on events scheduled to celebrate NBDW™! See the “Find a Chapter” page for a list of Chapters by state. Click on chapter name for an option to email them directly or visit their website. \nRight now you may be asking yourself\, “Why should we do anything special for NBDW™?” \nThere are two reasons: first is to share with others what we enjoy so much –ballroom dancing; second\, this is an occasion where we cannot only celebrate\, but promote dancing in general and USA Dance in particular. It is a great opportunity to increase membership and participation in dancing in your community. \nWe encourage chapters who have never done anything special to recognize this week by trying just one new thing. It could be a raffle\, free passes to future dances\, or free admission for anyone who brings a first-time guest\, to mention a few. Many chapters go “all out” to celebrate with a dance every night\, often with each offering a different theme. Chapters hold dances in malls\, community centers\, and parks – they advertise or arrange to have feature articles written in the local paper about ballroom dancing. They offer free lessons\, and do demonstrations in nursing homes\, schools\, festivals and other public venues. \nFilms like “Mad Hot Ballroom” and “Shall We Dance” were extremely popular. ABC broadcast of “Dancing With The Stars” has been a huge hit sparking lots of interest in learning to dance\, particularly with the 18-49 age group. Start now\, use the current media attention as a springboard for promoting ballroom dancing in your community. \nIntegrating dance films and TV shows into the week-long celebration is an interesting way to promote dancing in your area. \nHere’s to celebration and happy dancing feet.

More than 200 K-12 students students on the autism spectrum with varying degrees of intellectual/developmental disabilities attend the school. Diaz is responsible for the expansion of the arts program at the school and bringing the life-long benefits of Ballroom Dance to ALL students at the school in partnership with DanceSport Education and Imperial Ballroom Dance Company. She has a passionate and powerful message about the benefits of ballroom dance and the impact it is creating for these autistic students. A leader\, Diana has received these awards:\n\nThe Rosa Carrillo Torres Humanitarian Award for her significant humanitarian efforts and contributions to the community at the Profiles of Success 2019 Hispanic Leadership Awards\nWomen Achievers of Arizona Award for her work every day to make a difference in the lives of Arizonans\nCox Communications Arizona 2018 Latino Leader Honoree recognized for her cultural and social contributions to our state.\n\n\n\n\nLIVE MUSIC: Mosaico 2.0\nAlex Hristov on acoustic guitar and Max Perrault on flute\, two of Arizona’s best musical talents will perform live during presentations and dinner time. Hear some of the best Latin\, Jazz and Flamenco tunes. Alex is best known for his ability to play deeply emotional\, traditional Flamenco while venturing into Latin music\, Jazz\, and other genres with ease. His deep musical and cultural knowledge allows him to blend the sounds and rhythms of southern Spain with Latin and contemporary grooves. Original songs and cover arrangements give the impression he has been affected by everyone from puro Flamenco phenom Tomatito and rumba master Jesse Cook to Brazilian legend Luiz Bonfa\, Gypsy Jazz pioneer Django Reinhardt\, and progressive metal legend Tosin Abasi. Alex trained and studied Flamenco music\, guitar\, and culture with Gaetano in Arizona\, and master guitarist and technician Gerardo Núñez in Sanlúcar de Barrameda\, in the heart of Andalucía in southern Spain.

With your support\, we can make the program accessible and affordable for Arizona’s children and youth. \n          With the current trends of diminishing public funding for sports and arts programs\, and the inability of many parents to privately afford those\, especially in low-income\, at risk school communities\, children and youth remain negatively impacted and are deprived of participating and experiencing the benefits of those opportunities. This also includes the students with special needs and autism\, who currently have no such opportunities.\n        Just for the last school year\, your generous support made ballroom dance accessible to over 100 low-income students at Create Academy.\n       This school year we are partnering with Arizona Autism Charter Schools serving 200+ students in grades KG-12 to deliver a school-wide ballroom dance program as part of their school curriculum in support of their education. 200+ students with autism with all range of abilities receive 10 ballroom dance lessons daily from our top-rated\, world-class ballroom dance professionals year-round. This is an unprecedented\, pioneer effort in the US! We are bringing the research and the benefits of ballroom dance to the students with autism at their school\, in their classrooms!\n          Your sponsorship will directly support the critical need to increase the number of children in Arizona who engage in ballroom dance as a physical activity to build life-long healthy habits. We hope you will consider sponsoring at the Masquerade Ball GALA and join our efforts to help shape a generation of healthy and thriving children and youth!\n          DanceSport Education is an Arizona\, not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) organization and contributions are tax-deductible.\n\nTickets: $55 ages 4-16; $100-170 adults
