Fondazione Nazionale della Danza has a partnership agreement with the Liceo Coreutico ‘Matilde da Canossa’ High-School in Reggio Emilia.

One of the initiatives included within the agreement is Da uno studio ad una performance (From a study to a performance), a performance-based project on the art of choreography designed to provide students with the tools for working on the creative alchemies and the technical choices that often influence the creative process.

Arturo Cannistrà works with the students in the spaces of the Fonderia and creates a choreography for them that will be featured in the programme of the end-of-year show.
