PERFORMANCE EXPERTS
NETWORK FOR TEACHERS
Interested teachers receive further training, inspiration and exchange in order to facilitate cultural projects and theatre visits in their schools as performance experts in the future. The teacher training programme includes introductions to contemporary dance and theatre performances as well as related practical workshops.
Both offers provide material to prepare a multifaceted visit to a performance with different classes:
-
Education and further training for teachers of all school types who are interested in learning more about dance in front of and behind the scenes.
-
Establishment of a teacher network in Munich with the aim of having a contact person for contemporary performing arts at every school in the long term.
The selected teacher receives further training opportunities and becomes part of a social network with an affinity for the arts, acting as a key person and mediator between the artistic productions and the school (practical workshops, introductions, rehearsal visits, artist talks, etc.).
The offers take place at irregular intervals, approximately every 8 weeks. Participation in the workshops is free of charge for teachers and is certified as further training.
The project is supported by the Cultural Department of the City of Munich and the Neustart Kulturprogramm Tanzpakt Reconnect.

He is always interested in changing the perspective and making play offers that promote contact between the children in a subtle and humorous way, stimulate the imagination and bring body and intellect together. This workshop is aimed at teachers from all types of schools who would like to work creatively with their students in an interdisciplinary way. This time the focus is on the age group 6-10 years.

Praktischer Workshop mit Sabine Karb
