1. Free dance entry
Every week we pay the entrance fee for selected dancers at our partner venues. Your name goes on the door list. Bring photo ID and walk in.
2. Free dance shoes
Not a pair off the shelf. Your shoes are custom designed for you, then made by hand in Italy by Dance Naturals, one stage at a time. We document every stage of the production and share it with you, from the first sketch to the finished pair. When they arrive, they exist nowhere else in the world.
Winners agree to record their win and their new shoes, and to share them on Dance Sage media.

Dance, check in, win
Subscribers who dance at a partner venue enter that night's shoe draw. Scan the Dance Sage card at the venue with the app. The card only works at the venue and only during the night, once per dancer. At the stroke of midnight, Cinderella style, the winner gets the news on their phone, right there on the dance floor.
3. The Golden Ticket
I have been to more than 5,000 parties in my life, full of amazing dancers. At every one I ask myself a single question: if this person performed somewhere, would I pay to watch them? For very few people has the answer been yes.
I have also been to many parties with a competition, and the irony is that the winner was not always the best dancer.
Dance Sage is not looking for the judges' winners. It is looking for dance sagers. If one day we approach you, anywhere in the world, in a small venue in Pattaya or a gigantic venue in Los Angeles, know that you are a dance sager and we found you. The Golden Ticket is for you.
Only 20 golden tickets will ever exist, each one numbered. When they are gone, they are gone.
They will be given out along the way of Travel to Dance: the journey of a dance lover looking for the ultimate dance, the story, and the life-changing moment. A ticket might find you on a street in Havana, in a back alley in San Francisco, or on a cold night bar crawl in Hungary.
A golden ticket holder gets:


- A lifetime supply of dance shoes.* Custom designed for you, handmade in Italy. Your feet will never touch an ordinary shoe on the dance floor again.
- A lifetime supply of Dance Sage dance wear.** Dressed by Dance Sage, every time you step onto the floor.
- Lifetime support for your competitions and performances.*** When you take the stage, Dance Sage stands behind you.
- Lifetime access to Dance Sage. All of it, for life. The doors are always open to you.
- The spotlight. Your dancing featured across Dance Sage social media, lessons and stories, so the world finally sees what we saw.
* One pair per year, plus one pair for each approved competition or performance, for as long as the Dance Sage app exists.
** One Dance Sage outfit per year, once Dance Sage dance wear is available, for as long as the Dance Sage app exists.
*** For competitions and performances approved by Dance Sage in advance. Support is decided case by case.
Each ticket carries a QR code that works once. Scan it, sign in, and the ticket is yours.
