Organized by InterDance -by Nora Garda in collaboration with City Ballet of Iowa, Iowa City-Johnson County Senior Center, Iowa Children's Museum and numerous dancers and community members, National Dance Day will be celebrated in Iowa City on Saturday July 31st, 2010.

To learn the choreography via video online here.

This national celebration was created by the Dizzy Feet Foundation, a group that includes "So You Think You Can Dance" producer Nigel Lythgoe, director Adam Shankman, "Dancing with the Stars" judge Carrie Ann Inaba and actress Katie Holmes. The organization was formed "to help underprivileged young people realize their dream of becoming professional dancers and to support, improve, and increase access to dance education in the United States."
