Covered by Dr. Marcus Collins in @forbes and From The Culture Pod, IDL co-founder & CEO Connor Lim shares how a childhood spent immersed in competitive dance, and years building @steezystudio before IDL, shaped his vision for the league. Dancers are the headliners, not an afterthought. Music has royalties, touring, and publishing rights — value that flows back to the people who make it. Dance never had that machinery, so credit for originators simply evaporated. IDL is building that machinery: guaranteed pay, real credit, and a structure where dancers are finally rewarded for the value they create.

Hell weeks with practice until 3am, my body breaking, and constantly sick because I barely could afford to eat. What was that all for? Evan and I talked about how do we truly make dance into a sport? Fuck it, why not a top 5 sport? The fans are there, every network already has a show. What we’re doing shouldn’t just be reality tv, it’s a sport. So for the decades and millions of dancers before us that chased the perfect performance. For our broken bodies and uncapped dreams. This is a major first step. 
 Im proud to say that what we do is finally on ESPN. Dancers are the new athletes. You are the stars now, not back up, not behind the scenes. Shout out to our team, Sunil and the EPV crew for making this a reality. Thank you to the founding teams for picking up my call when I shared our crazy idea. 27 Jul 2026 The IDLs first @nytimes article. Thanks @margaretfuhrer for going deep, spending time with the teams and dancers, and really asking the hard questions. I’m so proud to see our pro dancer’s faces on the NY Times, we’re doing what we said we’d do. Dance is our sport. Now come watch us make history. 🫶 26 May 2026 The IDL 2027 Season is a GO 🎊 21 Oct 2026 Professional dance is attracting a new wave of investment. The International Dance League (IDL) has raised $15 million in Series A funding, led by Elysian Park Ventures, with participation from Sony, KB Partners, APEX, Yamaha Music Innovations Fund, and October Ventures. The investment follows a debut season that saw all six events sell out, 2 billion social views generated, and a media rights agreement secured with ESPN2. Now, IDL is looking to build on that momentum, using the new capital to expand its tour operations, strengthen broadcast production, and invest in the infrastructure supporting its teams and dancers ahead of 2027. For a league that launched just months ago, the funding represents another step toward establishing professional dance as a global sports property. #InternationalDanceLeague #SportsBusiness #SportsInvestment #SportsMedia #Dance 21 Oct 2026 We raised $15 million to help complete IDL’s inaugural season and build what comes next. Thank you to the fans for showing up and helping build this community. We felt your support in every city and across every stream. This funding supports the work underway now and our next phase of growth: stronger operations for teams and dancers, expanded touring and production, and new ways for fans to connect with the league. All six teams return in 2027. Schedule and host cities coming soon. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for the 2027 season. Link in bio for full story. 21 Oct 2026 Some sports have to manufacture social moments but dance already has them built in. Whether it’s winning routines becoming TikTok trends, fans recreating moves, or Gen Alpha wanting to participate, not just watch, it’s a must-see sport. Co-founder and CEO of @idl.global @__connorlim says that gives dance something incredibly valuable: innate virality. And traditional sports can learn lesson: sometimes the best social strategy is giving audiences something they naturally want to copy, share and make their own. #LeadersWeek 14 Oct 2026 If the most points took the title, the season was over in Sydney. No Royal Family rise. No Jam Republic breakthrough. No GRV run. No 1MILLION climbing back up the standings. Connor Lim (IDL Co-Founder & League Commissioner) and Alec Albright (Head of League Operations) sit down to answer the questions you had for the IDL following the Championship and break down why every Series had to matter. 🎙️ Full episode on the IDL YouTube channel. Link in bio. 25 Sep 2026 The International Dance League just wrapped its historic inaugural season. IDL brought together six teams representing global dance hubs across five events, introducing professional contracts, standings, live broadcasts, and a season-long championship structure to competitive team dance. Vancouver’s Brotherhood went undefeated during the regular season and secured the 2026 Regular Season title. But at the Championship in Los Angeles, hometown team GRV entered as the No. 4 seed and completed the upset, becoming the first Season Champion in IDL history. Year one also delivered five sold-out events, more than 1.7 billion views, and IDL’s first media rights deal with ESPN, alongside major brand partnerships supporting the Championship. 👇 What stood out to you most from IDL’s first season? #InternationalDanceLeague #IDL #SportsBusiness #Dance #SportsMarketing 24 Sep 2026 Season One of the International Dance League is a wrap. 🌏 In 2026 Aura Studios helped bring @idl.global to life, from content and lighting /stage design to show programming and running it on tour. It took us from Seoul to New York, Vancouver, Sydney and home to Los Angeles, building stages that let the world’s best crews do what they do best. Big congrats to every team that left it all on the floor this season: Quick Style, Royal Family, Jam Republic, GRV, 1MILLION and Brotherhood. It was an honor to light you up. 🙏 Huge thanks to the @__connorlim @evanczhou @idl.global team, our crew, and everyone who made every city feel like a main event. And we’re not slowing down. Planning and development for IDL 2027 has already begun. 👀 📸 @ianteraoka 24 Sep 2026 AMA - drop your thoughts below! Let’s keep building. 🫡 21 Sep 2026 IDL 2026 Championship.
