To say that Danny Dance loves House Music would be an understatement. He plays House in nightclubs, festivals, parks, piano bars, and city centers. He teaches House Dance to kids in schools and afterschool programs throughout the city. His production work and remixes span the entire spectrum of House Music culture.
A native of Miami, Danny was exposed to the wide variety of music and dance that comes with growing up in a city so diverse. His DJ sets reflect that same scope, weaving in Latin, Tribal, Tech, Funky, Soulful, Deep, and other genres of House into an experience that turns even casual clubgoers into House Music lovers. "I am literally on a mission to find new fans of House Music and to help expand House Dance culture on a global scale," admits Dance. "If I can transfer my enthusiasm for this music to everyone I DJ for, I'll be happy for the rest of my life." Find his DJ mixes and remixes on iTunes, Soundcloud, Reverbnation, PodOmatic, and more.

House Dance is an upright, improvisational form of 'social dance' performed to House Music. It borrows--but has distinct roots--from many different dance styles, including jazz, tap, Hip-Hop, capoeira, Salsa, and more. Originating in the last half-century in nightclubs throughout the U.S., it has hit global prominence in the last 15 years.
The dance emphasizes fluid body movements that match the rhythm and tempo of the music, as well as complex footwork that closely follows the instrumentation of the song.
House Dancing is freedom.
Give your students the gift of dance! House Dance will improve your kids' confidence, self-esteem, fitness, musical intelligence, and social skills.
My House Dance classes are fun, fit, and full of participation by all students. As a former schoolteacher (Science), I mentor students in a friendly, fast-paced dancing environment that encourages cooperation, positive attitudes, and an openness to learning.
