Through intensive training and creation periods this dance program focuses on artistry, technique, creativity, sophistication and maturity. The program will have positive effects on a dancer’s confidence and abilities, so each individual can successfully move forward with their career in the dance field.
Every student will get direct access to life-, performance- and career coaching with Coco Regina, known from TAW (The Audition Workshop).
In depth focus on the course Dance and Film, taught by the established choreographer Helena Franzén (https://helenafranzen.se/),
and filmmaker, photographer and scenographer Håkan Jelk.
Ongoing course with the camera and editing programs will be led by Mathieu Hebeisen.
Unmissable to the education is the strong connection with
ilDance (http://www.ildance.se/); yearly workshops and choreographic projects with Israel Aloni and Lee Brummer as well as the possibility to audition for their young company ilYoung (http://www.ildance.se/ilyoung).
The coming study year will start with a circus course on the slack rope, to learn how to accept being off balance and negotiate ‘balancing’.
We work with a strong support group around the dancers, both on a physical as well as a mental level:
We have an Alexander technique practitioner offering Alexander technique classes, individual sessions, practical anatomy as well as mentor sessions.
We have a physiotherapist with experience at professional ballet companies in Europe in the house, offering individually measured strengthening support, condition training and injury prevention and treatment.
