Continuing Education for Dancers, Students, and Educators
Targeted professional development opens up new artistic perspectives and deepens understanding of dance and pedagogy. In addition to our training program, we regularly offer special workshops, seminars, and lectures. These events are designed for dancers, dance educators, and students who wish to expand their knowledge, gain fresh inspiration, and further develop their professional skills.
With carefully selected topics and experienced speakers, we create opportunities for inspiration, exchange, and personal growth.

Workshops
Benedict Manniegel Easter Workshop
Once a year in spring—usually in the week after Easter—we organize an intensive holiday workshop week for dancers of various ages and training levels.
The program places a clear emphasis on Classical Ballet. In addition, subjects such as Pointe, , Modern and Contemporary Dance, Character Dance, Yoga for dancers, and Dance History may be offered.
Our workshop combines daily training, new inspiration, and individual support in an inspiring atmosphere—ideal for anyone who wants to develop their dancing skills in a targeted manner.
Participants are divided into different levels so that both young talents and advanced dancers find optimal conditions for their technical, artistic, and personal growth.
The next workshop will take place from April 7 to 11, 2026.
