5 Dance Degree Programs in Netherlands

At Fontys Dance Arts in Context, we teach you to create, think, and produce with your fellow students, and to place dance in different contexts. The programme offers three different profiles: Contemporary, Contemporary Urban, and Choreography. Here, you are encouraged to develop your artistic profile, both as a creator, and dancer.

Dance Artist, the ArtEZ modern and contemporary dance course, trains you to become a dance artist with your own position in the work field. In this age, it is more important than ever for a dance artist to be firmly based in a dance world that is always developing. At the top Dance Artist course at ArtEZ, you are trained as a (co)creating dancer and maker. Key to this is the development and embodiment of your own (artistic) identity as a dance artist.

The Master Performance Practices at ArtEZ is an incubator for artistic research around the Body in Performance and its wider ecology. The course is based in the HOME OF PERFORMANCE PRACTICES in Arnhem, Netherlands, harbouring a community of dedisciplined and diverse thinkers who promote performance-making as a strategy for equitable societies.

This part-time 2-year innovative Joint Degree Master Choreography is run jointly by Codarts University of the Arts in Rotterdam and Fontys Academy of the Arts in Tilburg. The program is designed to support experienced movement makers from a variety of fields while they carry out research into questions initiated from their current practice.
