Mosaic is Britain's top oriental dance publication!

The magazine covers a wide range of topics interesting to dancers at all levels of ability and experience. Information on different dance styles, debate on issues that affect us directly as dancers, plus lots of interesting reviews and articles.

If you are not yet receiving the magazine and you would like to - please note that you will need to become a member of Mosaic. Mosaic members receive the magazine three times a year (December, April and August) as part of their membership package. 

In addition all members are entitled to a free entry in the teachers' directory and on the website. This is on the proviso that you are able to provide proof that you hold current public liability insurance. MADN's own scheme offers insurance at very competitive rates (terms & conditions apply).. .  To find out more about becoming a member please email the Membership Secretary at membership@mosaicdance.org or click here for more information.

Mosaic Magazine - an update

We would like to apologise to all our members for the non-appearance of the spring magazine. The production of the magazine has been severely delayed due to a combination of unforeseeable and unavoidable problems. We regret very much the inconvenience this delay has caused to our members and in particular to our advertisers, and we hope to have a bumper double issue out to everyone as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and support.

Magazine Submissions Policy

All letters, reviews and articles submitted for publication in Mosaic are subject to editing and comment. Articles and letters express the opinions of the author and are not necessarily those of the MADN Committee.

All contributors should ensure that their submissions are not libelous or infringe copyright.

Please ensure that you a) provide credits for all photographs and that b) you have obtained permission for them to be reproduced in the magazine and/or website.

Advertisements for goods and services in Mosaic does not necessarily imply recommendation by the MADN Committee. articles are copyright of their authors and should not be reproduced without prior permission.

Requests for publication of any item under the pseudonym of "anonymous" must include your name and address (which will be omitted on publication).

All submissions are printed on the condition that they have not been published previously in the UK (including on the Internet) and that they will not be printed elsewhere in the UK or on the Internet for at least one year after publication in Mosaic.

If at all possible please submit articles as word or text files, and photographs as jpegs or tifs at a minimum resolution of 300dpi. Articles or images supplied on paper will require conversion to an electronic format which (in the case of the articles) can take a good deal of time and is open to errors - this may mean that they are less likely to be published.

Return postage must accompany all discs, CDs, manuscripts, illustrations and photographs submitted, if you would like them returned.
