Dancers And Health Together (DAHT), Inc. is an official nonprofit corporation under section 501(c)(3) in the Internal Revenue Code. DAHT, Inc. has received its official Arizona Corporate status by meeting the requirements of the Arizona Corporate Commission.

The Problem (we are addressing): People are not utilizing everything they have been given. This results in a lack of utilization of the mind and body connection, which reduces the mental and physical health of people.

The Answer (we are giving for the problem): Dance is a beneficial process that can improve its participant’s mental and physical health.

How (DAHT, Inc. can help): DAHT, Inc. can show and give people the seemingly limitless forms of dance opportunities that are available to advance their health. We are achieving this by connecting with the community through dance classes, programs, and workshops. We are also acknowledging the various styles of dance through a recognition show, which will help the world become more aware of how they can execute dance for their health.

Current community dance programs are being facilitated to help charter and public school students learn how dance can help their health (the Osborn School District in Phoenix has already approved our program proposal). The first dance workshop is going to be during the weekend of September 18, 2010. This workshop will have classes for all members of the community whether or not they have experienced dance training. We will also have more challenging dance classes that will be aimed for dancers in the intermediate and advanced levels. The workshop will include many different dance styles and the classes will be led by Phoenix’s experienced performers, choreographers, and teachers.

The dance recognition show is targeted for April 2011, but the date for that show is currently flexible. The styles we are investigating for possibilities to include in the first recognition show are as follows: classical modern, post-modern, classical ballet, contemporary ballet, jazz, belly-dancing, hip-hop, break-dancing, capoeira, contemporary lyrical, tap, ballroom, salsa, and community dance. The DAHT Team members are aware we may not be able to include all of those styles in the first recognition show, but we are keeping our opportunities open until it is necessary to narrow them down.
