Member Profile

The International Association for Creative Dance (IACD) is a welcoming, diverse, and inclusive member-governed organization. We are a community of creative movers who practice, promote, develop, and apply a free approach to the art of body movement and dance improvisation as pioneered by Barbara Mettler.

We encourage the understanding and use of Mettler-based creative dance in diverse contexts such as community centers, elementary and secondary schools, colleges and universities, clinical settings including health care and wellness environments, places of worship, public parks, and dance studios.
