Arts Council England have produced an online directory of disability-related touring companies  from the UK called On the Move which can be accessed via the publications section of the website of the Arts Council England:
 
 
The list below is by no means exhaustive - to locate other companies and teachers involved in inclusive practice in your own area approach your local dance agency, browse the web or approach one of the contacts in the list - most of whom will be able to point you in the right direction. In the UK your first port of call should be:
 
Foundation for Community Dance

In the USA several excellent Websites exist; see AXIS website for many of the companies currently active in the States and beyond -
http://axisdance.org (full address see below) also the National Disability Arts and Disability Centers online calendar (see USA below) and DanceAbility for its extensive workshop and teacher training programme http://www.streamcommunication.com/danceability

"Contact Quarterly" is a wide reaching journal about Contact Improvisation that also publicises inclusive workshops, projects and teachers particularly in the USA but also elsewhere. Most companies today have a web site or mailing list and will happily give details of their activities.
