Dance is new chance
Start date: Jun 18, 2014, End date: Oct 1, 2014 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The "Dance is new chance" project is a dance workshop which brings together 51 dancers between 18 and 25 years old from three dance groups, ( modern and folk) from Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. The inspiration was to make a project which will be a clash of two cultures: the folk and street dance. The main objective is to increase the acceptance and understanding among the 51 dancers during the seven days in Mrzezyno. We are going to rebut stereotypes of both street and folk dancers. The idea is that young people try certain elements of techniques from other groups, and show them own elements of choreography and finally together prepare common dance show. We will use different methods of work. During the performances and dance classes, both on the beach and in the port of Mrzezyno, participants will broaden their skills. Methods such as teamwork and brainstorming will be necessary during the preparation of two performances, combining street and folk techniques. Moreover, participants with the children from holiday camp will prepare a poster depicting dancers and dance styles. We are going to hang this poster on one of the fence as a form of promotion the active leisure through dance. Additionally, during the project youth will take part in integration games, activities, and "energizers”. We believe that by encouraging youth to develop a common performance participants will exchange experiences, learn how to achieve compromise and diversify their dance choreography Moreover, by organized performances and dance workshops they will promote and encourage local community and tourists for active ways of leisure.
