Dance Educators Collective is always in search of compelling presenters, exhibitors, and sponsors who offer valuable products and services that help dance professionals lead and improve their businesses. Whether you're interested in sharing your expertise, showcasing your brand, or gaining exposure to studio owners and industry leaders, we invite you to apply. Partner with us to make a lasting impact—use the form linked below to become a presenter, exhibitor, or sponsor!
For Presenters
Our clients lead and/or teach all levels of artists, from recreational dancers to pre-professionals. They are in search of innovative thinking and new approaches to teaching and growing their business and classes.
While curriculum or classroom management is always top of mind, we encourage you to think beyond the standard continuing education model and find fresh ways to teach our clients how to devise new learning models, create new choreography and combinations, use innovative and attainable marketing tools, cultivate and retain employees, and employ sound financial practices that ensure the health of their business or department.
As a presenter, you may either apply to present a seminar or a speaking event. We do not allow presenters to focus on the selling of or use of a product or service. If your primary goal is to showcase your products or services for the purposes of selling, please fill out the form as an exhibitor rather than a presenter.
