NATIONAL BALLROOM DANCE WEEK ™

September 14-20, 2025

What will your chapter do?

If you have not already started planning, you will want to add this to your next board meeting agenda.

Most of the USA Dance chapters host special dances, beginner lesson programs and public demonstrations during National Ballroom Dance Week™.

Some chapters have successfully worked with local studios and instructors to schedule lessons and social dances every day of the week doing a marvelous job of bringing their ballroom community together to reach out and encourage more people to give ballroom a whirl.

Get your chapter members involved.  It is a wonderful way to share the fun of ballroom dance with current and potential dancers in your community.

There is no one "best" place to bring the public to ballroom dancing during NBDW. Ingenious organizers have conducted ballroom dance events in shopping malls, hotel lobbies, grocery stores, libraries, government facilities, recreation halls, churches, dance studios, college & high-school facilities, parking lots, at state and local fairs, corporate facilities, in the town square, senior homes, community buildings, hospitals - in short, every place the public is.

Make contact with the Mayor and/or Governor for proclamations recognizing National Ballroom Dance Week. Invite them to attend some of the scheduled events. Set up an information table or booth, when appropriate, to share information about USA Dance and the local dance community. Educate people about the mission of USA Dance and let them know how they can become members and join the fun. Provide the events calendar and information about the purpose of NBDW™ to local media and invite them to attend and to report on the events. Submit press releases and photos to the media for follow up coverage.

Join the excitement – share the fun!
