Dance & Coreography

About the subject

Starting from the fact that all bodies are different, we work with the body we each have. We embrace the limitations and opportunities we experience.


We insist on dance as a space where you can be yourself and contribute everything that is uniquely you. Together, we create the safe environment where we can express ourselves.


Whether you've been dancing every day since you were a child, only danced alone at home in your living room, or mostly enjoy dancing in the late-night hours at a club, there is space for exactly you. No prior experience is necessary, but you should be willing to explore, move, practice, and come up with ideas that can turn into choreographies.


Through exercises, investigations, and choreographic tasks, we create our own choreographed dances.


This often happens in collaboration, either in duets or small groups, but solo work also occurs. Occasionally, there will be opportunities to showcase our work to other students at the school or at public events.


We will also work on filming our choreographic experiments and use the school’s outdoor areas, or venture into the local community, to find the perfect settings. We will look at dance as it is presented on stages in Denmark and around the world, gaining insight into various choreographic expressions, which will inspire us.


Through these practices, we work with dance as an exploratory space that can open up creative processes and lead to a new understanding of your own body.


Most importantly, we will laugh, sweat, listen to both good and bad music, breathe deeply, and you will also become wiser about what a physical practice is and what your own preferences truly are.


We will also experience a dance performance at the school or take a trip to Holstebro or Aarhus.
