Dance is cultural education

The German Dance Association (Dachverband Tanz Deutschland) is connected to the topic of cultural education in many ways through its members - be it the dance education associations, the artists' associations or the permanent dance and ballet ensembles at German theaters. In the "Chance Tanz" project, we have joined forces around the initiative of the German Dance Association in schools with success!

The German Dance Association is involved in the communication and committees of the "Chance Tanz" project within the framework of "Kultur macht stark," a project of Aktion Tanz / Bundesverband Tanz in Bildung und Gesellschaft. The Federal Ministry of Science and Research has funded the project "Chance Tanz" of the Bundesverband Tanz in Schulen e.V. with up to 6 million Euros from 2013 to 2017.The program has been extended by 5 years and runs until 2022.

Furthermore, the German Dance Association is represented in the board of trustees of the so called Tanztreffens der Jugend - a youth dance festival.

Dance Pedagogy | Dance Education

Dance pedagogy as a field deals with the didactics and methodology for reflection and transmission of the experiences made in dance practice. The aim is to qualify teachers to pass on traditions, methods and dance techniques to future students.

The German Dance Association promotes high quality in dance education in training and further education, in cultural education as well as in dance with children and young people.
