Through initiatives and projects, the German Dance Association advances the nationwide issues of dance and its impact in many areas of society. Here we present our ongoing projects and funding programs.
The German Dance Award is the most prestigious prize for artistic dance in Germany.
It has been awarded annually since 1983 to current present by the Dachverband Tanz.
With tanz:digital (dance digital), the German Dance Association in cooperation with dance archives, production houses and the model projects funded within the project, was pursuing the goal of making dance a virtual and immersive experience and presenting it online.
Kreativ-Transfer is a funding program in the fields of performing arts, visual arts and games to support the international networking and visibility of companies, artists, producers and other creative professionals.
TANZPAKT Stadt-Land-Bund is a joint initiative of municipalities, federal states and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media to promote excellence in dance.
The German Dance Association is pleased to announce the opening of applications for our travel and accommodation grant. This grant is designed to support individuals outside of Germany who wish to attend movement analysis or teacher training programmes in Germany. The aim is to facilitate international exchange, networking and qualification in the field of dance pedagogy.
