In the 2022|2023 season we offer following events and courses:

• For school classes and kindergarden (Look behind the scenes)

  Dancing strengthens body and soul. And makes you happy. It encourages the flexibility, strength, velocity, endurance and coordination. Moreover it connects with other people and imparts not only to children a feeling of solidarity and security. In short, dancing is a school for life. Why not let as many children and young adults as possible take part in this?

  “Tanz ist KLASSE!” has many different offers especially for school classes. Classes have the possibility to visit performances of the Staatsballett Berlin for special prizes; in addition we introduce the students in the production during a previous workshop. In these workshops the students get the possibility to look behind the scenes of a ballet company, to visit the dancers during their daily training and to even dance themselves.

  These workshops are also suited for kindergarten groups.

  If you are interested in attending in a workshop or even visiting a performance of the Staatsballett Berlin please do not hesitate to contact us through our contact form.

• For families (Introductions, workshops for families)

  „Tanz ist KLASSE!“ offers families on certain dates, for example during the school holidays, the possibility, to attend a workshop at the Staatsballett Berlin together with their children. They get to look behind the scenes of a ballet company, get information about the art “ballet”, the Staatsballett Berlin, point shoes and costumes and even dance themselves.

  If you plan to visit a performance of the Staatsballett Berlin with the whole family, we warmly recommend you our family workshops prior to selected performances. We introduce the story and characters to the children, show pictures of the production and even rehearse some steps ourselves. The children will recognize the steps while watching the performance helping them to stay attentive. The workshops take place before performances marked as “Familienvorstellung” / “family performance”. You will get the tickets to special prizes on these dates.
