To work for the success and health of New Zealand dance.

We support people involved in dance; students, teachers, choreographers, performers, presenters, researchers and writers. We make connections, plant seeds, offer options, identify possibilities, advocate, broker and suggest directions. Our role is in stimulating and empowering people for the creation and presentation of dance. DANZ has been a registered charitable organisation since 1997. DANZ is a membership organisation for those involved in the professional, education and recreation sectors of New Zealand dance.
