DDF Dancers Join Kids Breaking League at NYC PAC!

This past weekend, our DDF breaking program partnered with the Kids Breaking League, a program run by DDF Breaking teacher Kid Glyde. They performed at the beautiful brand new Perelman Performing Arts Center just blocks from DDF. What a great way to help celebrate 50 years of Hip Hop! Thanks to all the DDF families who came out to watch and support, and even battle!

So Much Fun at StoryDance Playgroup!

We had a blast dancing with so many little ones at DDF’s FREE StoryDance Playgroup in late October. Along with about 20 participants and their grown-ups, we danced, we read stories, we played games with scarves and bears. And to top it all off, we had a beautiful ballerina performance at the end as a special treat! Keep an eye out for our next StoryDance Playgroup!

DDF Wins “Best Musical Theater”!

On October 18th, DDF Owners Hanne and Melanie attended the Industry Dance Awards in Hollywood, California! The entire event was amazing, complete with a red carpet, celebrity hosts and honorees (including THE Shirley MacLaine!), and an evening of awards in various dance genres and for outstanding achievements and artistic contributions. Most notably, the event raises money for Dancers Against Cancer, and this year, over $100,000 was raised!

We are so excited to report that DDF’s “No Business”, choreographed by the fabulous Al Blackstone for our 2023 competition season and expertly danced by 7 of our super talented DDF dancers, won the IDF award for Best Musical Theater! Congrats to all!
