Dance Adjudication Network

Who We Are

The Dance Adjudication Network (DAN) is a Community Interest Company (CIC) committed to the global Breaking community. We address the need for fair judging within competitive Breaking culture and aim to uplift dancers, support judges, assist promoters, and involve audiences. Our organisation was created within the Breaking community and is led by the same creators of the judging system that was used to secure Breaking's position in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

What We Do

Training
Training and certification for judges through e-learning, webinars, and in-person events.
Certification
Maintaining a record of trained and certified judges worldwide.
Education
Providing educational resources for dancers and coaches to help them interpret competition results and improve their performance.
Explain Judging
Creating public content on platforms like YouTube and Instagram to explain judging values and promote transparency.
Encourage Discussion

Promote Fairness
Leading outreach initiatives to promote fair competitions while preserving the culture's integrity.

Our Vision

We envision a future where fair, transparent judging is a global standard in Breaking. We believe that certified judges are essential for the integrity of competitions. Our goal is to foster a more informed and empowered community of dancers, promoters, and audiences, ensuring that the culture of Breaking retains its roots as it expands into larger platforms.
