Basis Program (Spring)
In addition to our 9-month Dance Education the Dance Program, motion*s dance studio Berlin offers a part-time intensive course in dance, starting in March 2022. There will be a short Program of 4 months starting in spring and a 6 months long program starting in summer.
The Basis Program is for people who want to integrate dance more into their lives – in addition to work or study. We offer you training in a closed group on two days as well as access to the weekly schedule of the motion*s Tanz- und Bewegungstudio with about 50 different classes per week.
Designed for people who simply enjoy dancing, as well as for already active artists from other areas of the performing arts who want to integrate dance into their artistic expression. Likewise, the basis program can be an introduction to the large field of body therapy / bodywork or an addition to an education in this area.
Previous experience in dance and movement is always helpful, but unlike our 9-month dance program is not required. For dancers who want to pursue a career as professional dancers, there is the motion*s Dance Program in preparation for further dance studies and a career in dance.
The diversity of the Basis Program covers the span from urban dance to contemporary dance. Hip Hop, African Dance, Contemporary, Jazz, Healthy Ballet, Alignment, Tribal Fusion, Contact, Freestyle and Improvisation techniques will be part of your training.
DURATION AND START
The Basis Program Spring lasts 4 months and runs from March to June 2022.
At the end of the Basis Program there will be a Showcase of the participants for friends and family. The following week we’ll have personal individual feedback sessions with each participant.
