Dancers Forum Compact

Guidelines for a Working Artistic Relationship Between Dancers and Choreographers

The Dancers Forum Compact was created to articulate the working artistic relationship between dancers and choreographers. Above all else it seeks to promote communication and respect among dancers and choreographers, and to enhance the creative act. Dancers Forum and those who created the Compact believe that by following the guidelines it lays out, choreographers and dancers will strengthen their relationships with each other.

Dancers Forum was founded in 1996 following the Dance Theater Workshop retreat for Dancers, "Doing the Dance." Its members are dance professionals - dancers and choreographers, among others - committed to improving the welfare of dancers in the belief that doing so will allow all aspects of and participants in the art form to flourish.
