What moved them
The World Dance Alliance, a member-driven organisation that provides information, advocacy and communication for dance organisations and individuals, was initiated in Hong Kong in 1990 with the founding of the Asia/Pacific region. The Alliance serves as a primary voice for dance and dancers throughout the world and encourages the exchange of ideas and the awareness of dance in all its many forms. The Americas joined the Alliance in 1993 and Europe in 1997.

The Festival Dance Ensemble, Department of Creative and Festival Arts Dance Alumni, returned home from a successful performance at the World Dance Alliance Americas General Assembly at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. The two pieces performed were “Caribbean Praise” and “The Hunt”, dances that were part of the ‘Celebrating Dance ‘showcase concert that was held in January 2009 at the Learning Resource Centre, UWI.
