ADVANCED TRAININGS
Would you like to focus on a specific dance topic, try out a different style, or experiment with new combinations?
We offer workshops in contemporary dance practices that will refine your dance skills: contemporary and other dance techniques, floor work, contact improvisation, instant composition, Skinner Releasing Technique, voguing, dance & language, rhythm in dance, etc.
In cooperation with Tanznetz Freiburg gUG, we also offer workshops as part of our qualifying programmes. Held in person or online, they prepare you for professional self-employment as a dance artist and keep you up to date on current developments!

person in charge
Zina Vaessen is a freelance choreographer, dancer and lecturer for contemporary dance and improvisation, living and working between Basel and Freiburg. In 2013 she completed her training as a professional dancer at the TIP in Freiburg. From 2013-2018 she was a permanent member of the company OFFSPACE in Kassel. Since 2018 she has been developing her own choreographic works in different ensembles. Her artistic practice is strongly influenced by practices from visual art and experimental film but also by contemporary philosophy, astonishment, the enjoyment of the unknown and not-knowing. A member of bewegungs-art since 2016, she was actively involved in building structures from which the current Tanznetz emerged. With projects such as the Triangle Meeting, she is committed to increasing networking among dance professionals in the tri-border region. She feels at home in wordless and empty spaces, with other bodies and with ants - and crickets.
