MISSION

Judges

House Dance International (HDI) is the first Urban Dance Festival dedicated exclusively to the art form of House Dance. The New York based event features face-to-face dance competitions in the categories of House, Vogue, Experimental and Waacking, as well as choreography exhibitions, group showcases, workshops, film screenings, open practice sessions, discussion panels and parties.

The art form of House Dance continues to proliferate worldwide. HDI represents a New York-based mission to bring together the various inviduals and organizations that have played a role in the creation and development of the art form. Each summer, the international house dance community will meet in New York City to exchange information,

compete, reflect on the art form and properly honor the roots of House Dance Culture.

Over the course of three days, HDI invites you to partake in the fourth annual event in July 2010: whether you are a dancer, choreographer, DJ, house enthusiast or spectator, your participation is welcome at all levels. HDI is a call for House Dancers to unite: to celebrate the art form, recognize its cultural impact, appreciate its history, and help navigate its future . . .
