Summer Dance Program
Company: American University in Kosovo
Venue: Rochester Institute of Technology: The American University in Ko
Location: Ampara, EP
Have you ever wanted to use dance as a means to understand, create and spend awareness about peace and conflict? Through this program, you have the opportunity to create and perform choreography in post-conflict locations, bringing up conversations where there’s sometimes silence.
Work with some of the best dancers, choreographers, and teachers in Prishtina, Kosovo. Study choreography, ballet, modern, somatics (yoga/pilates), contemporary, partnering, improvisation, and composition. Each dancer can choreograph a piece on all the dancers in the program and see their work performed in a professional theatre.
Through powerful potential of dance we unveil social issues and take steps towards change, leading to a final professional performance on aspects of peace and conflict at the end of the program.
Each dancer receives individualized attention and is given the time and structure to develop their artistry.
This is an opportunity to have a true dance company experience with principal dancers of the Kosovo National Ballet and an award winning international choreographer.
