Freedom to Dance
Freedom to dance has been established as the right of all dancers over many years. I believe that
the freedom to dance cannot be granted by only one organisation. Freedom to dance is based on
fairness, integrity and principle. When force is needed to prevent people from dancing, then human
rights are being violated. You have the FREEDOM and RIGHT to dance.
The founding members of Freedom to Dance Mr Richard Gleave and Mrs Anne Gleave have been
asked to become a members of the Council of International Dance - UNESCO, which encourages
international peace and universal respect by promoting collaboration among nations in Dance.
