The South African Dance Teachers Association (SADTA) is a non-profit organization, established in 1935 in South Africa. Our aim is to qualify teachers and help them improve their dance teaching skills. For more than 80 years we have provided training for dance teachers and examiners, enabling teachers to enter their students for examinations and competitions as well as running many successful championships in a variety of dance styles.
