Dance Intensive Program Berlin with Certificate
The 5-month Dance Intensive program with a certificate in Berlin is designed to prepare students for professional training, but is also suitable for any dancer who wants to deepen their passion for dance in a supportive and encouraging environment. The program builds on the fundamentals of various dance styles, including ballet, contemporary dance, and jazz dance.
So if you’re looking for an exceptional dance program to develop your personal potential in a safe environment and are seeking the opportunity to train exclusively in a small group, we’d love to welcome you to our 5-month Dance Intensive Program.
There is no age restriction for this program, and you don’t have to audition. However, you should have some prior dance experience and feel physically fit enough to handle the demands of the program.
Training takes place in the afternoons starting at 4:45 p.m. and can therefore be attended after work.
If you’re still in school and can’t attend all training sessions, we’ll offer you a customized, reduced-scope program.
The Dance Certificate Program takes place twice a year, beginning in early February and early September.
We look forward to receiving your application!
Dance Intensive Program
Pre-professional dance training
For dancers aged 16 to 22 with prior experience who want to specifically prepare for auditions for dance training programs, we offer a 9-month pre-training program. To be admitted, you must participate in one of the audition dates for the training program. Training takes place in the mornings in the training classes. Therefore, you cannot participate in the preparatory program as long as you are still required to attend school. The program begins annually in early October, along with the training classes.
