The app is available in the App Store today and provides a fun, interactive, media rich and up-to-the-minute tool for both professional and amateur dancers.

The app has more than 30 interactive features including:

• Live Twitter Feeds so dancers can keep up-to-date with what’s happening in the Dance Industry from choreographers, dance companies, audition opportunities.
• Hyperlinked images of Dancewear, that allows users to shop and purchase items directly from their iPad
• Video based tutorials on dance steps, health tips and nutrition advice
• The ability to book a class direct and add it to your own calendar
• Teacher only content that assists teachers to professionally develop their careers

Director of Dancehub, Phil Reece said for over 20 years dance news has been published in printed dance magazines or shared predominantly through flyers and word of mouth at a local or regional level.

“In many cases, important information has not reached dancers or teachers in time and in some cases workshop or audition opportunities have already passed,” he said.

“Our app and global website will open doors and create opportunities for dancers, dance businesses and the arts community as a whole.

Picture a young dancer reading the Dancehub Magazine on her iPad, watching tutorial videos on – ‘How to stretch before a class’ or tapping in to LIVE feeds from her favourite choreographer.

“She will be able to engage and learn from dance professionals, choreographers, specialist health care professionals and leading dance companies without ever leaving her home.”
