Promotion of young talent
Danse Suisse supports young talents and creates structures for sustainable development.
Interest in dance careers is growing – and so is the need for information. The Talentscouting Days by Danse Suisse offer young people and their parents independent guidance: two classes (classical or urban and modern/contemporary) in front of a professional jury, a dance medicine check-up/seminar, and a personal counseling session. In addition, auditions for Art and Sports Programs from various cantons take place as part of the TSD.
Danse Suisse runs the specific dance and talent development programme summerdance for dancers aged 12 and over in the summer. The one-week programme is aimed at students in arts & sports programmes or in pre-professional training who train at least 10 lessons per week. summerdance is thus a platform for talent development in dance that ties in with the Talentscouting Days and builds a bridge to professional dance training.
