The World Dance & Dance Sport Council, fomerly known as the International Council of Ballroom Dancing (ICBD), was established on 22nd September 1950 in Edinburgh, Scotland.

A small group of 22 professionals, from 12 countries created what has today become the leading authority on Professional Dance throughout the world.

The aims of the Council are to encourage and promote dancing through its membership.

The policy of the Council requires that the member in each country should operate under democratic principles similar to those of the WD&DSC. Each country is allowed one member.

The members elect the Council officers every two years. New members are elected by the members at an annual meeting.
