Videoing your dance
Videoing your dance piece to upload to the Dance Proms website couldn’t be simpler. We have put together three short films of top tips for selecting the right camera, choosing the right setting on it and using a tripod. Watch the videos below:
Videoing your dance
Do you have space to share?
We understand that some teachers may not have their own dance studio space in which to film a dance piece, so we’d like to ask our members to help each other out and offer space to each other.
Perhaps you know of other dance teachers in your area and you can get in touch with them directly, or please email [email protected] if you have space to share or rent, letting us know what space you have and where you are located. Equally, if you need a bigger space to film in, let us know and we’ll try to connect you with someone nearby.

Who We Are
The International Dance Teachers’ Association’s (IDTA) objectives are to promote knowledge and foster the art of dance in all its forms, to consult, to maintain and improve teaching standards, to offer a comprehensive range of professional qualifications in all dance genres, and to provide and maintain syllabi and technique in all dance genres to train dancers for the profession.
The Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD) was formed in 1904 and is today a registered educational charity. The ISTD covers the full spectrum of dance examinations on a truly global scale. ISTD dance teachers are highly experienced in teaching children and adults in a variety of dance styles ranging from Ballet to Ballroom, Street to South Asian Dance, and Latin American to Tap.
The Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) is one of the world’s most influential education and dance teacher training organisations. A registered charity, the RAD promotes knowledge, understanding and practice of dance internationally, and seeks to accomplish this through promoting dance, educating and training students and teachers and providing ballet examinations to set standards and reward achievement.
The Royal Albert Hall, built to fulfil the vision of Prince Albert and promote both the arts and the sciences, has been in continuous use since it was opened in 1871. It is a registered charity that is held in trust for the nation and does not receive any public revenue funding. As one of the world’s most famous stages, it hosts music concerts, dance spectaculars, scientific conversations, sporting events and award ceremonies, as well as offering an extensive education programme and around 120 events a year in the Elgar Room and Café Consort to welcome younger artists and audiences into the building.
Dance Proms is a partnership project betweenthe IDTA, ISTD, RAD and the Royal Albert Hallworking together in celebration of dance.
