Shen Wei Dance ArtsADF serves a role in our field unlike any other, with a conviction that this form is worth fighting for, a dedication to dance-making that sets the standard for partnership between artists and presenters worldwide.

Rather than emphasize fads and commercial success, ADF stands alone in its dedication to the long-term evolution of careers, of movements, of the form itself.

Dendy

I was a scholarship student at ADF and it opened my mind and heart to a broader vision of dance that has stayed with me throughout my career.

ADF, more than any other dance institution, has commissioned new work throughout my life that always challenged me to go to the next level.

I would not be where I am today had it not been for ADF on many levels. For that I am grateful.
