Preamble: Canadian Amateur DanceSport Association

The Canadian Amateur DanceSport Association (CADA) is the national association of provincial amateur DanceSport associations in Canada.

CADA is recognized by the International DanceSport Federation (IDSF) as the sole national authority of competent jurisdiction for the administration of amateur DanceSport in Canada,.

CADA (formerly CABDA) was founded and incorporated in 1979. Its objects are defined and promoted by its bylaws and reflected in its Championship Rules.

Each of Canada’s national DanceSport Regions has its own Regional DanceSport Association. Their representatives, who are CADA’s Directors, are entitled to attend CADA’s Annual General Meeting, which is the controlling National legislative organ for amateur DanceSport in Canada.

The administration of professional dancing in Canada is separate from the administration of amateur DanceSport, and is performed by the Canadian Dance Teachers Association (CDTA), which is a member of an international professional organization known as the World Dance and DanceSport Council (WD & DSC) in London. A professional dancer is a person who earns his livelihood from participation in DanceSport.

A standing joint IDSF/WD & DSC Committee of four delegates from each body exists to promote understanding between amateurs, professionals and their respective associations and to liaise, resolve and arbitrate problems and disputes involving amateurs and professionals.
