WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
P.A.R.T.S. SummerSchool is open for amateurs, students and professional dancers from 16 years. The regular program is organized in three levels: elementary, intermediate and advanced.
New this year: this year you can also join us for a ‘Taste of SummerSchool’ with half days of workshops for absolute beginners.

In collaboration with our partner organization Platform K, some classes and workshops will be open for people with disabilities and special needs, with individual accompaniment.

PRACTICAL
We offer 5 parallel programs per week:
1 absolute beginners program (only in week 2 & week 5), 1 elementary program, 2 intermediate programs (same level) and 1 advanced program.
Level descriptions>>

The programs are especially conceived for each level. In order to ensure the best experience for everybody, you can only subscribe for a full week program. It’s not possible to book single classes.
A 'Taste of SummerSchool' (absolute beginners) includes an afternoon workshop.
Each regular program includes a body studies class (yoga, Pilates), a contemporary technique class or ballet, Rosas repertoire or a project workshop.

All classes will be given in English.

There is the possibility of eating a daily freshly prepared macrobiotic menu (soup, meal, dessert) in our kitchen. We cook with local organic products only, the menu is prepared with love and according to macrobiotic principles. This opportunity is limited and must be purchased at registration and per week.
