The a one-to-one trajectory Mentoring for Dancers is conceived for those who wish to review, learn, and reflect on the personal, vocational, and professional aspects related to the study/ work field or on the life pathways that might achieve their development.

Dancers’ lives are intense as their careers on and off stage are uncertain. A dancer’s career is lifelong travel, whereas the person-dancer and their body may gain expertise by dedicating endless hours in the rehearsals, at the theatre and attending training and practices while at the same time having to make choices and sacrifices that will trace their personal life.

By participating in this tailored mentoring trajectory, dance fellows can undertake their own transformative journey of personal growth, vocational path, and artistic purpose in their life-professional endeavors. This trajectory is a promising opportunity for those dancers still in training to reflect on their options, the acceptance of their possibilities or the choices for the future. It also leads to re-framing objectives and defining or discovering other ways to develop.

Target groups: dance scholars in the final stages of their Dance BA or Master’s degree. Also suitable for graduates or mid-career practitioners and professionals. Individual dancers can submit their request with a motivation letter and short CV by the 26th October for the Mentoring for Dancers trajectory in the period January- July 2025. Register
