Contemporary dance for the public

Experience contemporary dance in all its diversity. You can come once, several times or regularly. The only requirement is a desire to discover.

Every Tuesday evening, the Galaxie cultural station opens a space where the body becomes a means of exploration, sharing and joy in movement. Here you will meet various personalities of the Czech dance scene and their different approaches. Each lesson offers a different perspective on contemporary dance - from working with breath and rhythm to improvisation and contact to the perception of the body in space. Thanks to this variety, you will have the opportunity to try different perspectives and paths of movement and find your own. Dance here is not about performance, but about an experience that at the end of the day connects you with yourself and the world around you.
