Operation Rif.PA 2020-15413/RER “A STEP BEYOND Methodologies, languages and professionalism for the dance of tomorrow”.
Activities co-financed with resources from the European Social Fund and the Emilia Romagna Region. Approved by DGR 401/2021 of 29/03/2021
Project n. 3 – Edition n. 1
“Over limited – Towards an integrated dialogue between dance and disability”
Professional Area: Artistic and Performing Arts Production

The project is to form a figure who is able to work for the valorisation of differences, not as limits, but as resources and starting point for a common creative path, using approaches and didactic tools of inclusive dance. A figure who, knowing the impact of dance on different forms of disability (motor, psychic, sensory), is able to adequately collect information to identify the objectives of a path of inclusivity, creating an accessible common language aimed at ensuring the acquisition of the same technical elements to all participants in a perspective of accumulation. He/she will know how to work with groups of different size and type, how to create and present performances, how to give feedback.
