Celebrating our history

Since 1904, we've celebrated dance excellence in every form, from our humble origins at the Hotel Cecil in Covent Garden, London, to the worldwide organisation we are today. We have a fascinating history, star-studded with some of dance's biggest names. 

We've created a timeline of the key dates and figures in the Society's history - follow us as we tread 120 years of the ISTD.
