BYU Ballroom Dance Company

The BYU Ballroom Dance Company originates in the Department of Dance of the College of Fine Arts and Communications at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. It has been a part of Brigham Young University for nearly 50 years and competes and performs throughout the world.
== History ==
For years BYU offered dance classes that included several genres, but with a specific focus on social dance. BYU's dance company didn't exist until 1953 when Alma Heaton joined the faculty as a recreation professor. Heaton came to BYU having taught social dance for a nationally recognized dance studio, and it seemed logical to continue that instruction at the university level. Heaton's work set the stage for BYU to become a leader in ballroom dance.〔( Adams, Kellene Ricks, ''Amazing Grace'', BYU Magazine Winter 1998 )〕 The Ballroom Dance program has been growing ever since and is now the largest collegiate dance program in the world.〔(Benjamin, Bob (January 20, 2006). BYU Ballroom Dance )〕 In 1960 Benjamin F. de Hoyos (a BYU professor in the BYU College of Health and Human Performance) founded the Ballroom Dance Company and was the director for 10 years. Following de Hoyos, Roy and June Mavor directed the company from 1970 to 1975 when Emerson Lyman and his wife LeGene took the reins. In 1980 Lee Wakefield and his wife Linda began directing the company, and continue to do so today.〔Performing Arts Management, Ballroom Dance Company, Press Kit, Fact Sheet March 2008 ()〕 "BYU was the first university to introduce dance into its curriculum; the school's involvement in the sport stretches back for a long time," observes Brian McDonald, president of the National Dance Council of America, which governs dance competitions in the United States. "And now BYU is, without question, the most influential school in the nation in terms of identifying dance as both a sport and a respected curriculum."〔
