launched in 2006, DDPP™ is the creation of Glennis McMurray and Marcy Girt. These new yorkers loved dancing at the clubs with friends, but loathed outrageous cover charges, getting hit on, and reeking of alcohol and cigarettes the next day.

The solution was clear: ditch the club, keep the dancing.

although McMurray and Girt organized the inaugural ddpp™ session on a whim, they found it struck an unexpected chord. “DDPP started as a way to work out and have fun without the conformity of a gym – how often have you heard your favorite song while you’re on the treadmill and wanted to hop off to do a real running man?” said McMurray. “But it has morphed into this amazing revolution of sorts where women come to find that little girl inside us all who just wants to have fun!”

Through word of mouth alone, DDPP™ chapters have cropped up all over the USA and internationally. dancers are responding to this liberating atmosphere where they are free to goof around, shake their bodies without objectification, and feel good about who they are.

welcome to the party!
