summerdance
summerdance is a specialized talent development program for dancers ages 12 and up, aimed at students in arts & sports programs or in pre-professional training who practice at least 10 classes per week. The week-long program will take place from August 11-17, 2024, at the dance studios of the Zurich University of the Arts, in cooperation with BA Contemporary Dance, ZHdK. summerdance will thus become a platform for talent development in dance, linking to the Talentscouting Days and building a bridge to professional dance education.
As the date for summerdance is outside school vacations in some cantons, you may contact Danse Suisse to get a dispensation from school lessons.
Registration will be open as of December 15. 2023.
Attention: The number of participants is limited; registrations will be considered in the order of receipt.
Participants from outside of Zurich have the possibility to stay overnight at the Wollishofen Youth Hostel in Zurich. The participants will be accompanied by a team of caretakers for the entire duration of the course.
