Netherlands Choreography Competition

<p> This season the current dancers of <strong>Dance in Art Junior Company</strong> had the amazing opportunity to organise for the first time an <strong>International choreography competition</strong> for professionals in the Netherlands. It is a good chance for emergent choreographers from all over the world to <strong>share one stage</strong> and <strong>exchange</strong> their working experience, concepts and talent.</p> <p> For the first edition we selected 23 new contemporary works among 140 applications and we are happy to present them in <strong>Haarlem on the 6th May 2017 (Toneelschuur theatre). </strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><u>NETHERLANDS CHOREOGRAPHY COMPETITION : </u></strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> - Contemporary, modern, ballet</p> <p> - 2 categories of dancers: junior and senior</p> <p> - Jury comprised of industry professionals and DanceInArt faculty members : <em>Martine Van Santen - Rianne Slenema - Quentin Roger - Mathilde Pailley.</em></p> <p> - Money prices Junior category (under 18): </p> <p>        </p> <p> *First place* =<i> 250 euros + 4000 euros scholarship  for 3 months choreographic research at Dance In Art + performance at the Toneelschuur Theatre, Haarlem 10th of June.</i>   </p> <p>              </p> <p> *Second place* <em>= 4000 euros scholarship for 3 months choreographic research at Dance In Art</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>* Third place * = A master class with one of the judges </em></p> <p>  </p> <p> - Money prices Senior category :           </p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>*</em>First place<em>* = 500 euros </em><i><em>+ 4000 euros scholarship  for 3 months choreogra</em>phic research at Dance In Art + performance at the Toneelschuur Theatre, Haarlem 10th of June.</i></p> <p>  </p> <p> *Second place* <em>= 4000 euros scholarship for 3 months choreographic research at Dance In Art</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>*</em>Third place*<em> = A masterclass with one of the judges</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>A NEW WAY TO DISCOVER THE NETHERLANDS:</strong></u> Toneelschuur Theatre, Haarlem (NL)</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Theatre_haarlem-1493302877" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417946/theatre_haarlem-1493302877.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> Haarlem is pleased to host the first Choreography Competition, and you will love the city : <img alt="Haarlem-1493303115" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417951/haarlem-1493303115.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>WHAT WILL YOU COVER IF YOU DECIDE TO HELP US:</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p> Since the beginning of the project we tried to contain the costs as much as possible and to make it affordable for all the dancers and choreographers applying. After an intense work <strong><u>we managed to cover 80% of the total costs </u></strong>such as the theatre rent, the administration costs, marketing and all the professionals involved. However we are still looking for the amount that will be given to the first places in both categories (junior and senior) which is <u><strong>820 euros in total : 250 euros junior money price + 500 euros senior money price + the 8% commission. </strong></u>As the dance community is based on connecting people and creating personal contact <strong>we decided to ask for your help rather than referring to big brands.</strong> We would like to take you on this journey with us and it gives you the opportunity to <strong>be the first to support emerging talents and together expand the limit of art.</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>IT IS NICE TO MEET YOU</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> Martine Van Santen (director of Netherlands Choreography Competition) and her team (Isabelle Campagne, Ione Barton, Sam Raymond, Emma Sickert, Vivian Pratanou, Merel Van den Beld, Rita Correia) are happy to announce the First Choreography Competition for emergent choreographer in The Netherlands.  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Collage_dance_in_art-1493293974" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417897/collage_dance_in_art-1493293974.jpg">   </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>THE SELECTED CHOREOGRAPHERS :</strong></u>  From all over the world, we are happy to introduce you those incredible artists :  Simone Hejiloo, Nikolett Pelles, Maria Zhukova, Micaela del Torto, Leung Hwan Lee, Sarah Prescimone, Ellen Oudshoom, Zhu Yifeng, Richard Bermange, Maya Ichikawa, Dalton Jansen, Ashley Veldhuyzen, Rotem Weissman, Anna Long, Carolina Cantinho, Lydia Lithos, Chiara Verdacchia, Saskia Twiss, Malcolm Sutherland, Aleksandr Kheglind, Saskia de Vries.   </p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FfhIcYIMpz2s%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DfhIcYIMpz2s&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FfhIcYIMpz2s%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>A CREATIVE AND AMBITIOUS IDEA FROM DANCE IN ART:</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fplayer.vimeo.com%2Fvideo%2F85608475&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F85608475&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.vimeocdn.com%2Fvideo%2F462987557_1280.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=vimeo" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p> If you want to know more about who is Dance in Art please check our website : http://www.danceinart.nl </p> <p> For tickets to be part of the audience and have a live experience please check the website of the theatre Tonelschuur Haarlem : https://www.toneelschuur.nl/dans/dance-art </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>GALLERY:</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="B_w_emma_jason_attitude_close-1493303366" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417956/B_W_Emma_Jason_Attitude_Close-1493303366.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="D4d_pic_1_-1493303447" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417959/D4D_Pic_1_-1493303447.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Dscf2340-1493303481" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417960/DSCF2340-1493303481.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="014_soloduo2015_cmeyer_originals-1493303503" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/417961/014_SoloDuo2015_cMEYER_ORIGINALS-1493303503.jpg"></p>
