FOR CHOREOGRAPHERS
HOW TO JOIN
The UKCD is a platform that lists you and your creative services, to promote your voice and share your work. As a resource, it is aimed at producers, directors, casting agents and production companies to use as a tool to access both emerging and established choreographers for professional work-related opportunities.
To join the directory, you must have a One Dance UK membership and at least five professional credits to authenticate your choreographic work. The One Dance UK team manage the directory and offer individual, administrative support for choreographers. We also provide recommendations to those looking for a choreographer, free of charge.
FOR PRODUCERS Whether you are looking for or are simply interested in researching dance choreography, fight direction, mass movement, or something more specific such as mask theatre, Middle Eastern dance, or music videos, the directory offers a diverse network of expertise with its contemporary practitioners. The directory is currently comprised of 115 dance and movement styles to represent the diverse ecology of choreographic specialisms across the UK. As an inclusive network, the directory advocates all styles and forms of dance from Capoeira to Sufi dance, Columbian Salsa to Waacking, Kathakali to Kizomba.
As a UKCD member, you gain access to the digital membership badge to display on your website and social media platforms.
The Featured Choreographer is our monthly spotlight campaign of a directory member, where the UKCD advocates you and helps to manage your exposure as a choreographer on a national level through our platform. In 2021, the featured spotlights have had combined reach and impressions of over 36,000 people across social media. Another benefit of the directory enables you to have an enhanced listing as a choreographer on Spotlight, saving £400.00. The UKCD offers you the opportunity to be part of a wider network, where you can reach out to us if you require support promoting your work or events across our platforms. Equally, we invite and welcome new contacts and partnerships of industry professionals to engage with the UKCD services.
