Unity Dance Challenge sets itself apart as a competition with a major focus on age appropriate costuming, music and choreography. A competition where every dancer is celebrated in a safe environment. Child safety is at the heart of every decision we make in preparation for and during each and every one of our events.

We are a group of like-minded people who put the emotional and physical safety of the children at the forefront of what we do. With an overwhelming response to the inaugural 2021 event, Unity Dance Challenge continues to return to Canberra and has since launched a number of new editions including the South Coast, Regional NSW and a Classical Challenge.
