History

The Middle Eastern Dance Association of New Zealand Inc. was formed in June 1992 by a group of belly dancers led by Diane James of Auckland.

We are a group of dance enthusiasts committed to supporting each other in the spirit of friendship. We believe in sharing information to educate both dancers and the general public about Middle Eastern dance.

MEDANZ produces events that bring belly dancers together so we can share our love of dance with each other and the public.
