The stage is yours – top boarding schools with a focus on dance

Boarding schools with a specialized dance program offer talented students intensive dance training combined with a high-quality academic career. The training encompasses various dance styles—such as ballet, contemporary, jazz, hip-hop, or modern dance—and is led by experienced instructors with stage or university experience. In addition to technical training, the focus is on expression, body control, rhythmic sense, and stage presence, complemented by improvisation, choreography, and theory sessions on dance history. Students regularly participate in performances and workshops, allowing them to gain stage experience and develop their creativity. Many schools also offer regular master classes with renowned guest instructors, participation in dance competitions, and collaborations with professional companies or universities.
