By participating in and organizing academic dance conferences, competitions, and collaborative projects with faculty and student artists, other university organizations, and guest artists, Attitude Dance Club will bring together the NYUAD community and the performing arts community in the region and beyond to discuss, explore, and educate each other about the historical and cultural significance of dance; Attitude Dance Club will provide its members the opportunity to work with artists from different backgrounds on creative and professional projects which may help them build skills beneficial for a lifetime.
