This Summer PARTS organises its fourth SummerSchool - July 2-27, four weeks, Monday to Friday. SummerSchool offers the opportunity to a large community of dancers to take classes with faculty members and guest teachers of PARTS. Technical classes take place in the morning; in the afternoon a choice can be made between workshops in composition and improvisation, and workshops on the repertoire of Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker. Morning classes include ballet and contemporary dance. The teachers are Anne-Linn Akselsen, Douglas Becker, Dominique Duszynski, Libby Farr, Ayman Harper, David Hernandez, Matej Kejzar, Roberto Olivan, Rasmus Olme, Francesco Scavetta, Clinton Stringer, and Sandy Williams. Workshops will be taught by Anne-Linn Akselsen, Jonathan Burrows, Michel Debrulle, Thomas Hauert, David Hernandez, Matej Kejzar, Martin Kilvady, Adrian Minkowicz, Martin Nachbar, Roberto Olivan, Johanne Saunier, and Francesco Scavetta. Several repertoire pieces of Rosas can be studied, i.e. Drumming, Elena’s Aria, Grosse Fuge, Rain, and Zeitung. Teachers include Nordine Benchorf, Alix Eynaudi, Nadine Ganase, Mark Lorimer, Taka Shamoto, Igor Shysko, Clinton Stringer, and Sandy Williams. SummerSchool offers classes and workshops mainly for dance amateurs (basic level) and dance students (medium level). Some classes and workshops however require an advanced level. Basic level: you have little experience in taking dance classes. Or maybe it will even be your first dance class ever… All detailed information can be found here.
