A rich offer of educational programs in 2014 – traineeships, workshops, residential workshops with coaching... for dancers, pedagogues, choreographers, dance critics and other professionals in the dance field.
In 2014 we are preparing for you:
A Pedagogical Workshop under the leadership of Sophie Billy (FR), Carlo Locatelli (IT/FR) and Jiří Lössl (CZ) – Prague HAMU.
A three day intensive seminar offering sharing experiences, practical physical workshops, and confronting various pedagogical models.
The key question of the seminar is: “How to create a comprehensive training program for a specific group of children?” while keeping in mind that dance pedagogy is also an artistic discipline.
Each year the seminar explores a new theme, in 2014 it will be ANATOMY seen as an artistic tool in the service of pedagogy.
The pedagogical workshop is complemented by a traditional round table with international participants on the theme: pedagogical systems in France, Slovakia, Italy and the Czech Republic.

Art and Dance as Tools to Develop Educational Systems – one week workshop
This week-long international educational seminar will explore from various angles the possible involvement of art and most of all dance in ordinary educational processes in basic and middle schools. We will confront the experiences of pedagogues and artists from France, Italy, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. The goal of this training module is to prepare artists for closer collaboration with schools, on opening up to creative processes that can enrich learning in many ways. The seminar is grounded in the experiences of Danse au coeur (FR, BE, DE) and …..
The seminar is made up of both theoretical lectures and also practical physical workshops.
Residential Workshops Coaching Choreographers
This six-day residential workshop with coaching is open to Czech and international choreographers who apply with their as yet unfinished creative projects. They will have the opportunity to work on them in Prague (5 hours in the studio per day) and, above all, in discussion with the coaches and the other creators present, to move their works forward. The goal is to open for these choreographers, on the basis of their own creations, new pathways for exploration - to guide them to ask questions that will deepen their own signature styles.
The entire workshop is conceived as a dialogue between the choreographers and experienced artists (“coaches”) who guide them in their work. There will be a public presentation every evening, which will allow for continuous monitoring of the development of individual works and discussion about them. The week will close with final commented presentations of the results of all the participants’ work.
The choreographers chosen for the residential workshop participate with their interpreters, and they have the opportunity to choose their own consultant from among the invited coaches.
Dates: Second half of August – precise days will be announced.
Dramaturgy in Dance – see also the page of this multiyear international project.
In 2014 we will begin a multi-year international project focused on studying questions connected to the dramaturgy of dance. Artists and experts from five different disciplines – music, architecture, film arts, sociology, and literature will gradually confront their own approaches and experiences with dance and its dramaturgy.
In 2014 the Centre for Choreographic Development SE.S.TA will focus on music. SE.S.TA will invite the orchestra Prague Modern to collaborate, as well as Czech composers and experts from France and Germany.
Activities:
- a five-day work laboratory with eight selected choreographers with musicians, composers and theoreticians
- invited choreographers will be able to take advantage of residential spaces (a five-day residential workshop)
- at the end of the process there will be a round table conference on the theme of dramaturgy between dance and music. The outcomes of the conference will be published.
Czech choreographers will be participating, as will young choreographers from our partner organizations (in France, Germany, Slovakia, and Italy). They will work with the Czech composer Miroslav Srnka who is renown most of all in Germany and France. Other experts invited from the world of music are the Artistic Director of Prague Modern David Danel, and the French composer Francois Sarhan, who has a series of dance projects behind him.
