Our Story

During 2013, some dancers and club heads felt unhappy about their circumstances within DanceSport. The 5 Directors of SACWD decided to take the lead and to provide a non-political and democratic environment where dancers and club heads could be happy and could love what they do best – DANCING!
The SACWD do not have a dual membership policy. This means that any dancer from any organisation will be allowed to take part in our competitions.
Dancers will also be able to take part in the WCDF World championship.

The SACWD consists of 5 Directors and our vision is as follows:

  • The SACWD honor the achievements of the top Country & Western Dancers in the Country each year.
  • To work in harmony, advice, assist and coordinate with the Dance Studios/Clubs & Schools via District and Provincial level to promote Country Dancing in all communities, especially amongst the youth in South Africa.
  • To provide policies to benefit all Country Dance members.
  • To encourage the Dancers, Studios/Clubs & Schools to promote and develop Line Dance and Country Couples as well as similar dance styles in the Country.
