The world of DanceSport, in your pocket. WDF is the official app of the World Dance Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and the home of competitive ballroom dance. Follow the global competition calendar across every major federation, open three decades of results archives, look up any of 107,000+ competitors on the public record, and take your place in the community that dances. THE PLATFORM IN NUMBERS — every competition, studio and vendor on the platform: the season's rhythm month by month, the busiest states, the next majors. Live figures, never a hard-coded number. THE TEN DANCES — Waltz to Jive, each with its history, character, tempo, signature figures, songs, and what the judges look for. Feel the rhythm on every page, take the "Which dance are you?" quiz, and try the scored rhythm challenge. COMPETITIONS — the sanctioned season in one calendar: NDCA, WDSF, WDC, WDO, WFADS, BDC, USA Dance and UK events with dates, venues and official sites. Star a competition and it lands on your watchlist with reminders. RECORDS — every dancer, on the record. Search the USA, international and WDSF circuits; open a profile for career stats, style breakdowns, championship titles, and recent placings. Search the register and competitions, dancers and judges from every market answer at once. RESULTS — the archives, championship by championship: USA competitions, the international circuits heat by heat, and the WDSF archive from World Championships to GrandSlams. PARTNER SEARCH — the fastest way to find your next dance partner. Browse real profiles with verified competition records, filter by style and role, respond to an ad, or post your own. THE FLOOR AND COMPETITION ROOMS — the community feed, and a room for every competition on the calendar: share photos and 15-second clips with everyone who was actually in the ballroom. YOUR DESK — a workspace for the dancer, the studio owner, the coach and the parent: your season board, your happenings, your students, your dancers. JOBS & AUDITIONS** — teaching positions, competition staff, and auditions, posted by studios and organizers; studios post openings straight from their Atlas page. YOUR PASSPORT, YOURS TO EDIT — claim your competition record and update your passport from the app: display name, country and city, studio, coaches, a short bio, and (adults, strictly opt-in) contact details on your public profile. THE STUDIO ATLAS AND MARKETPLACE — 1,280 studios across 69 countries, and the vendors who dress, style, photograph and soundtrack the ballroom world. Sign in with Apple or Google to claim your record, unlock your Dance Passport, message other members, and get notified when someone answers your ad. World Dance Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to growing dance worldwide.
