A Comparative Study of Community Dance Management Models in Australia and China—Beijing and Tasmania as an Example

Community dance is a socialized expression of urban life. Using a literature research approach, this paper compares the community dance management models in Beijing and Tasmania and finds that there are differences in the development process of community dance in the two cities: the degree of government support, the professionalization of the management organization system, and the value orientation. In addition, the study proposes suggestions for improving the management of community dance in China. The management of community dance in China can improve its management effectiveness in three ways: integrating cultural atmosphere and policy guidance resources, stimulating multiple social forces to participate in community dance, and broadening funding sources and enhancing the social power of community dance, so as to promote a more benign development of community dance as a public art form in China.
