Dance Exchange 2025 promises to be a wonderful programme.

Find out about the content of our lectures here and what you can expect throughout the day. A warm welcome awaits you from our Faculty Committee. 

There will be an opportunity to network with other teachers, ask any questions you may have about membership or our syllabi and If you are attending alone, please don’t worry, we have a “new teachers”/”first timers” area where you can sit with one of our committee and fellow teachers.

(Note, if you are participating, please ensure that you are wearing appropriate clothing and footwear)
