National Dance Critics Association

The National Dance Critics Association (NDCA) is a professional organization that brings together dance critics, writers, and scholars dedicated to analyzing and evaluating dance performances. Its goal is to promote thoughtful, informed discussion of dance as an art form, support the development of critics, and advance understanding of dance culture. By providing resources, events, and a platform for criticism, the NDCA helps ensure that dance is thoughtfully examined and appreciated within the broader arts landscape.
