      What is Unitedchoreos

The Idea comes of a long experience in the field of dance and note that a good collaboration cannot exist only when all interested parties find an advantage there.

INTERESTED PARTIES
 
The Choreographers                 The Leaders of the Clubs                   The Dancers
They wrote a choreography
with the hope that the
dance became a succes
                They "select" dances
with the hope to have
"find a good one"
                  They learn dances
with the hope to have the
opportunity to dance them
on dance evening
                                       

Internet is a bottomless informations source. It's possible to find there all (or almost) the dances script, the video's and even the musics (downloading)

The real problem is to "find" the "must" dances. It's too much choice on Internet that it's impossible to be sure that the chosen choreography is the one that the majority will choice. For example: on the music "Good Time" by Alan Jackson they are (minimum) 12 choreographies but only one is an international succes (who's danced in all the countries)

More and more "budding choreographers" are writing their personally choreography (most of time it's only danced in their group) and unknown for all the other dancers (1)
(1)   For Unitedchoreos, the Dancer is an important person. The Dancers decide if a dance will be a "flop" or a succes. It's so important to suggest them "nice" dances and also to ask them what they are thinking about the teached dances (see "referendum")

We've been invite to the Choreo's Show ("Spanish Event 2009") and it's where the idea of is born Unitedchoreos is born and grow up with the co-operation of three countries. France (represented by LDA), Spain and Belgium (represented by LDA).

In collaboration with famous choreographers (2) Unitedchoreos will suggest, in preview, the dances wroten by these choreographers. These dances will be proposed to the registered clubs. These clubs will became a specific assistance for the teaching of theses dances (3)
