Membership
Benefits To All
Individual Members
Membership funds the
majority of our organization's efforts and provides many benefits to dancers throughout
the United States. One of the greatest benefits of membership in USA Dance is
simply being an active participant in and supporter of this dynamic and
effective leader, promoter and supporter of ballroom dancing. Many members
say that attending USA Dance events and association with the friends they
make at those events quickly becomes a significant and very pleasurable part
of their life. This applies regardless of age or whether the member is a
Social Dancer, DanceSport Athlete, Student, or Junior dancer. Dancers who
love to travel enjoy the instant social life they find while on vacation.
Other more specific benefits are listed below:
 Discounts on Admissions
Attend our fabulous
chapter dances anywhere in the country and pay the lower admission prices
applicable to members. Each dance usually starts with a one-hour dance
lesson, followed by several hours of general dancing. The typical program
includes mixers, line dances, and dance demonstrations.
Dance Information
All members receive a
subscription to our exciting bimonthly magazine, American Dancer. Members can
use free Dancemart classified advertising in American Dancer magazine to sell
personal costumes, shoes etc. See a copy of the magazine at our dance for
