Content

Dancing as the oldest form of human expression is more popular than ever. TV formats like "You can dance", "Let`s dance" or "Got to dance" prove it right. In every culture, people dance in the most diverse ways and with very different intentions. Whether in jazz dance, hip hop or modern dance, ballet, salsa or dance acrobatics, there are no limits to the variety of movement and dance possibilities. And if you want to try out several styles, you might find what you are looking for in Dancemix or in the performance group UNIted Dance Crew.

Depending on the course concept, both beginners and advanced dancers have the opportunity to dance or train in small or large groups, in pairs or individually. As a rule, each course has its own concept, which, according to the respective style, includes a dance warm-up, technique training, the development of conditional factors (e. g. flexibility, strength, endurance) and, above all, work on various choreographies. There is an individual chance to develop one's own skills, learn new ones or just to deal with the music, the choreography and one's own movements - just to switch off and dance for a while.

As a special highlight, the annual dance festival in January offers all active members the chance to present what they have learned in front of a dance-loving audience.
