For 2 weeks Camping, a dance festival, proposes a free and rich programme around contemporary dance: classes, workshops, movies, shows, performances, Camping Kids, an exhibition, School Marathon…
Camping reaches out to the entire world of dance: students, teachers, choreographers… but also to the general public, dance enthusiasts or spectators. This contemporary dance festival is the occasion for professionals, universities and the general public to get together.
Camping takes place in CND (National Dance Center) in Pantin, and also in Lyon and in the Île-de-France region.
You will be able to attend to one workshop per week with a very large offer (from baroque to contemporary, from hip-hop to bollywood etc.). You will also be able to understand the creation process during which sharing techniques and ideas is a necessary step.
A workshop is a 5 sessions engagement led by an artist invited from monday to friday. Some workshops end up with a show.
The price of the weekly workshops also give access to the lessons of the schools invited. You can enroll on CND.fr starting from April 2020.
