This event is important because it creates a unique platform to open up to the masses the art and dance discipline related to Liturgical/ Praise Dancing. As a dance organization, we felt the need to put this platform out into the universe, as with other dance genres which all require self-discipline and commitment, amongst other things.

“DIHN” believes that life is a competition in so many ways that we live our normal lives. “Dance In His Name” is a dance platform built around fostering positive interaction amongst Praise Dance teams from all walks of life. Similar to a choir competitions, Church basketball leagues or the like, it’s all about the intent, how its presented and what the overall focus is. Our focus with DIHN is dance, creativity, public exposure and of course, honoring our Lord and Savior as a part of this dance event.

Yes, it is.  This event honors the spirit of dance in worship within a public format.
