The festival frames the dance performances with an educational programme for school classes and teachers, children, young people and families. In workshops and discussion formats before or after the performances, the audience and artists come together to talk about what they have seen, exchange ideas, ask questions and dance themselves.
The team is available to answer any questions about our programmes and book workshops for school classes. Feel free to contact us individually: info@explore-dance.de
