NOJA-NEBYLA STAGE EDUCATION
creating future for young dancers
NOJA-NEBYLA STAGE EDUCATION (STAGE) started in Vienna 2020 as a pilot project for an original education lab in training and molding young dancers intellectually, creatively, and physically, inspiring them with knowledge from recognized & long experienced mentors and choreographers.
We developed new learning and teaching strategies during the last years’ intensive artistic and pedagogical movement research. Their evaluation and acknowledgment took place through the ongoing reflection, practice, and feedback of students, teachers, choreographers, and all those involved in the process. The results encouraged us to explore further and focus on continually expanding and deepening the resources of research.
With its 2nd season of existence, 2021-2022 STAGE evolved from a pilot project into a personalized dance training program for young ballet dancers focusing on classical dance’s functional and expressive movements as the core of the practice-based artistic research.
STAGE bridges the gap between dance education and professional dance life, providing the necessary skills, methods, and stage experiences as building stones for a strong, healthy, and successful career.
