Henny Jurriëns Studio

Routebeschrijving Website

Henny Jurriëns Studio Europe's leading training center for dance professionals HJS is not a school or an academy, nor is it associated with a specific company.

The Henny Jurriëns Studio (HJS) was established in 1995 in order to provide open training for professional-level dancers. The namesake of the foundation, the late Henny Jurriëns, was one of The Netherlands best known and loved dancers. HJS offers both classical ballet and contemporary dance classes throughout the year, as well as periodic workshops concentrating on specific styles of dance or dance-related bodywork. HJS plays a central role in the freelance professional dance community in Amsterdam and strives to serve it by providing a regular program of classes which stimulate, challenge and maintain the technical level of the dancers. The studio serves also as a networking and information center where audition, performance, workshop and housing notices are posted regularly. HJS is a partner of the JULIdans Festival, and collaborates with all of the major dance companies and Academies in the Netherlands. The Henny Jurriëns Studio is grateful for the financial support it receives from both the national government and the city of Amsterdam.

✨ 𝗠𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦 ✨

MoDem (Movimento Democratico) is the movement language built by Roberto Zappalà over 30 years of research with Compagnia Zappalà Danza. It is based on exploring the possibilities of the body through flows, control, dynamics, and “exegesis” of the joints and muscles, valuing instinct, individuality, and apparent imperfection.

In this workshop, different parts of the body are isolated and explored to continuously expand the possibilities of movement🌀
