After graduation

After graduation

The (dance) world is changing rapidly. For that reason, we do not train you to become a dancer with only one possible career, but as a dance artist with a career to suit you.

What kind of dance artist are you? As a dance artist, you have many options. You can become a strong, authentic performer who can co-create with a choreographer or director, or perhaps become an upcoming maker who uses the dancing body as an instrument to create work with consciousness and impact on the world.

After graduating as Dance Artist in Arnhem, you can use the title Bachelor of Arts. You can work as an independent dancer and maker at home and abroad, for example for (inter)national production houses of dance companies.
