In honor of International Dance Day, we look back on the Dance Sport Challenge that took place during the Special Olympics World Games in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE). The challenge consisted of 130 dancers from 25 nations, including the UAE and featured team and duo competition.
International Dance Day was celebrated annually on a global scale on April 29th, 2020. The day strives to encourage participation and education in dance through events and festivals held on the date all over the world. Check out some of the best moves from the day:
