The joy of dance can take many forms. Together with the season’s artists, Danse Danse offers you enriching experiences that are as unique as they are diverse. Through encounters with artists, talks, dance workshops, and sneak previews of works in progress, Danse Danse invites you to sample, learn about and love dance.

Open dance workshops
Attend a workshop led by one of the choreographers or performers featured in our season. The workshops are specially designed for non-professionals.

Creative residencies
Each year, Danse Danse supports artists by making rehearsal spaces available, thereby allowing them to deepen several aspects of their creative work.

Meet the artists
After the Wednesday and Friday performances, you’re invited to stay after the show for an informal talkback session with the artistic team
