International Dance Day is Saturday, April 29th, and World of Dance is celebrating in style with awesome playlists, custom gear, and messages from your favorite dancers.
This year, the International Dance Council CID is partnering with the World Food Program WFP for a new initiative: Dance to Zero Hunger, a project promoting healthy eating through dance and education. (The World Food Program feeds 80 million people in 80 countries.)
Because dance is part of a healthy lifestyle, the initiative will bring small dance programs to children who are facing food scarcity. Schools participating in the program will create choreography focusing on the importance of food security and achieving zero hunger, which will be performed on International Dance Day.
We’re also bringing together the WOD community to give some special multi-lingual shoutouts, including Kida The Great, Luka & Jenalyn, DNA, B-Boy Morris, Josh Ricketts Argentina, Silvia Asemota & Paula Perez, and more.
And if you want to share your love International Dance Day, you can also head over to the World of Dance store to pick up custom gear at 30% off.
Make sure to tune into the World of Dance livestream this weekend and have a very happy International #DANCEDAY.
