NDT Summer Intensive is a unique experience which takes place in the atmosphere and surroundings of our company’s home. The last two weeks 62 students took part in an intensive training program comprised of our company repertoire, workshops new composition and classes focused on dance technique. The course offers the dancers the chance to develop themselves as versatile contemporary dancers, overseen by our international artistic team of choreographers and teachers.


The two week program is specially created for (pre)professional dancers aged 14 - 30 years old. NDT’s artistic staff selects the participants based on technical development and creativity.
