Pina Bausch Lab Intensive 2026 | June 28-July 5, 2026

Pina Bausch Lab is a six-day intensive program that gives dancers a unique opportunity to experience first hand the work of Pina Bausch. Selected excerpts will be from various pieces of her work which expands over three decades. The day will consist of a warm-up in ballet or contemporary dance followed by a deep dive of learning repertoire, where we will engage with questions and themes of the material, including personal creativity, so that the scenes are lived in and integrated by the individual dancer. The program will conclude with an informal showing. Join us to learn and embody the repertoire of Pina Bausch while expanding creative tools and discovering a deep physical investigation. This program is in collaboration with the Pina Bausch Foundation.
