No, you don't need to register for the individual workshops in advance - your festival ticket is sufficient. On each of the festival days we will post lists for the individual workshops in the morning before the start. Here you can sign up, so that we get an overview of the group size. Since different course concepts and room sizes only allow a certain number of participants, some workshops will be offered more than once.

The dance rooms can only be entered barefoot, on socks or with indoor shoes. We recommend athletic shoes for most workshops. Your clothing should be such that you can move well in it and feel comfortable.

Due to the internationality of our faculty and participants, English is spoken in most workshops. If you are not so confident in English, there is always someone in the course who can translate. In this case, please become active yourself and ask other participants right at the beginning of the course. In the past years, besides German and English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Russian and many other languages were present.

As every year, participants of all levels are welcome: Beginners as well as experienced rhythms will enjoy the different workshops. The workshops cover a wide range of rhythm, song and dance for different levels of experience. By dividing the workshops into three levels, we would like to give you some help in estimating the level of difficulty. You choose for yourself what you are confident in and in which areas you would like to challenge yourself.

The workshops are designed for adults. It is possible to register a minor child if you are present as an adult parent or legal guardian. Please write us a message beforehand.
