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.
