what is CoLab

CoLab, The link between… Is a one year program designed for young dancers who have finished their professional dance education. The goal of the program is make the gap between school and company/free scene smaller. The young dancers get the chance to work with different choreographers in the contemporary scene and perform their pieces in many different performance on and off stage.

the link, organisation

The link was founded in 2011 by Rolf and Jasmine Ackermann. Since the beginning the link is a place where people with many different interests or needs meet. The Link consists out of a health centre, body mind courses, a department for the arts, a massage school and last but not least a Dance School. Over the years The Link has grown into an established organisation. In 2019 it took it’s last leap… Our professional dance education became a reality. It is possible to complete your dance education in conjunction with two different qualifications, gymnasium or KV, alternatively you can simply complete your dance education on its own. On this page you find all information concerning this topic. Feel free to click the link logo here and find out more about the link and all its aspects.
