Dancehall for Seniors
As part of the international day of dance, the older years will be able to have a good time in the gym of the Nová cvernovka cultural center
Lessons led by Alice Šaling and Katarína Matúšová are intended for those who want to gain new energy, improve their physical condition and share time with like-minded people without previous dance experience. The dance studio for seniors, organized by the Platform for contemporary dance PLAST, will be available free of charge from 14:00-15:00 in the premises of the Gym/Telocvičňa – Residential Center for Dance in Nova Cvernovka at 80 Račianska Street.
On the occasion of International Dance Day, on Monday, April 29, several events will take place throughout Slovakia, the common denominator of which will be the celebration of the art of dance. Performances, live installations or the possibility of free improvisation will be offered by creative centers in Bratislava, Piešťany, Žilina, Banská Bystrica and Košice. All events have free entry.
Since 1982, April 29 has been an international holiday of dance as an activity that allows everyone to express their thoughts, feelings and dreams through body movement, freely and without language or cultural barriers. It is also the day when the theater world commemorates the birth of the important French choreographer of the 18th century, the first great reformer of the art of dance, Jean-Georges Noverre, who required dance to tell great stories of the human soul and character, just like William Shakespeare once did. International Dance Day is sponsored by the International Theater Institute (ITI), the International Dance Council (CID) and UNESCO.
