Tennessee Association of Dance (TAD) was chartered in 1971 to encourage, support and promote the development of dance. We are a 501(c)3 service organization that operates as the primary voice for advocacy, education, leadership, advancement, and policy for the art form and its constituencies in Tennessee.

By means of this website, TAD offers information to the general public about dance events and activities; dance related organizations and businesses with special emphasis on our members; community involvement opportunities; dance history; as well as government issues of local, state and national importance to those in the field. 

Our members, via a special membership portal, will be able to get information about employment opportunities, auditions, master classes and workshops, doctors who work with dancers, and more. This information will provide members with an assortment of opportunities to grow their skills, network, perform, teach, gain employment, learn, heal, promote themselves, support the dance community, get involved, and be an advocate.
