Dance Ireland is the national organisation for dance in Ireland.
We enable the development of dance as an art form, a professional practice, and cultural activity across the island of Ireland, providing support, resources and representation; working towards a sustainable dance sector in Ireland.
We operate DanceHouse as a national centre of excellence - a flagship home for dance in Dublin city centre, comprising six studios and an Artists' Resource Room.
Our members represent the breadth of the dance sector and include professional dancers and choreographers, organisations and educational institutions, and pre-professional and early career dancers and makers.
Our values - Sustainability; Interdependence; Inclusion - shape who we are, how we operate, and the culture we nurture as an organisation.
