We all dance. Think about it for a moment. Toddlers swaying to nursery songs, elementary schools kids putting “their right foot in, right foot out”, high school sweethearts at prom, ravers, hip hoppers, newlyweds taking the floor for their first dance as a married couple, millions of viewers supporting their favorite celebrity on television dance contests, audiences at pop concerts delighting in elaborately staged dance routines, or seniors holding each other for a twirl at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration.  Everybody dances.

Yet there’s no single media destination to celebrate the joy of dance. Dance.com fills that void with premium content for dance fans that’s entertaining, current, informative, instructional, positive and totally addictive.  We will be the premier destination for anyone who is a fan of dance, whether it’s a viral video of a spectacular wedding dance, a recap of last night’s big dance contest television finale, backstage gossip about the making of a pop star’s dance video, a montage of the latest dance trend’s spectacular moves, a user-generated video contest for the best kids’ dance recital. We also run a social network for more serious dancers.

As a multi-platform, digitally-focused media company, we’re dedicated to running a profitable venture, all the while adding some fun to the world, encouraging self-expression, inspiring the arts and getting the world moving. Owned by Capezio, which for more than a century has been the premier dance fashion and products company in the U.S., Dance.com offers its audience and advertisers deep expertise in dance, as well as digital content and advertising. 

We strive to offer marketers premium platforms for reaching millions of dance fans in an uplifting, joyous and brand-safe environment and work with brands to shape native advertising campaigns related to this inspiring world.
