Holland Dance Boot Camp is an intensive training weekend for ambitious amateur dancers who are looking for a new challenge. Your dance experience is at the heart of the boot camp: you are under the charge of renowned dance coaches and instructors who will do everything they can to raise your skills to a higher level. Prepare yourself for a couple of fantastic and unforgettable days full of dance!

The Boot Camp consists of various rehearsals and lessons, from in-your-face urban to demanding classical ballet. You are constantly meeting new instructors, and with each one being introduced to different styles. After getting acquainted on the first evening, participants will be divided up into groups, and each group assigned its own coach. Our coaches are Marijke Eliasberg (modern), Rina Bernabela (jazz), Eszteca Noya (urban) and Koen and Roemjana (latin). For the three days they will work intensively with their own group on elements like your personal presence, technique and performance.

TAKING PART IN YOUR OWN SOLO

The boot camp is open to everyone, and we encourage dancers with different backgrounds to sign up for it. You don't have to go through a screening round to be able to participate, because we want to bring together as many diverse dancers as possible. We only ask that at home you prepare a short solo, 1 minute in length, in advance. You have an entirely free hand to do whatever you want with it, but just be sure that you show yourself to your best advantage. You will be working out your solo further over the weekend, to improve it from feedback and finally present it.

KICK-OFF FRIDAY, 7 OCTOBER

The kick-off for the program is on Friday evening in the Korzo Theatre, which will be your home base for the whole weekend. Each evening will be closed with presentations in the theatre, in which you will show what you have been working on during the day. You can then recover after all the day's efforts in the bar of the Korzo Theatre, or with a relaxing dance film.
