The right to freedom of peaceful assembly is the right to gather in a public place for a peaceful purpose without a permit. This right is protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and by similar provisions in the constitutions of many other countries.

Dance is a form of expression that can be used to communicate a message, a form of art that can be used to bring people together, and a form of exercise that can be used to promote health and well-being. As such, dance can be used to exercise the right to freedom of peaceful assembly.

Dance has been used to exercise the right to freedom of peaceful assembly in a variety of contexts, including the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, and the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Dancers face a variety of challenges when exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly, including discrimination, harassment, and arrest.

There are a number of things that can be done to protect the right to freedom of peaceful assembly for dancers, including educating the public about the right, advocating for policies that protect the right, and supporting dancers who are exercising their right.
