2026 Soul Dancer & DLTC Conferences

At Soul Dancer Conference, we leave the trophies and the pressure at the door. For three unforgettable days we come together to move, to grow, to be inspired, and remember why we fell in love with dance in the first place.
With a full heart and a whole lot of excitement, Michelle Soutier invites you to join us for the 2026 DLTC! This milestone year celebrates 30 years of sharing the passion, the challenges, and the joy of dance education. And for the first time ever, we’ll be gathering oceanfront! We’ll be together at the newly renovated Diplomat Beach Resort—a stunning setting where we can learn, connect, and recharge.
July 28 – August 2, 2026
The Diplomat Beach Resort, Hollywood, Florida
All events will be held in the Great Hall(s)
