Fičo Balet is an artist-led NGO founded in 2000 by Goran Bogdanovski and a core group of artistic collaborators. Fičo Balet’s diverse (international) programme aims to explore and communicate the full range of the artistic and educational experience of dance by organising different community-based art projects.

Fičo Balet also provides an on-going, weekly training to "any body" interested in movement and dance and has been organising the international festival of contemporary dance CoFestival since its beginnings in 2012.


Background and mission

The name of the company comes from the Slovenian nickname for the Fiat 750, fičo, the first widely accessible car in the former Yugoslavia, and the Slovenian word for ballet, balet. Attempting to bring democracy to high art, transform the mundane through art, and to foster new forms of collaboration, Fičo Balet seeks to explore physicality, presence, and corporeal expression through different educational and performance practices as well as through festival production.


Productions

Combining skill with playfulness, Fičo Balet's dance and theatre projects are known for redefining dance virtuosity in inspiring and unconventional ways. Aiming to reflect the "emotional landscape of the everyday", Fičo Balet has created many dance performances and other dance-related events (improvisations, community-based projects). Following the slogan “Every body can dance”, Fičo Balet also produces works with non-professional dancers as well as cross-disciplinary works, such as happenings and performance art events.

Dance development through international cooperation

Besides organising regular weekly trainings in Ljubljana and offering teachers’ training programmes and mentorship, Fičo Balet is the initiator of the Nomad Dance Academy Slovenia, a branch of the wider international platform for collaboration, education, research, production, and promotion of contemporary dance that gathers potentials and resources on a regional level with an aim to contribute to the improvement and professionalization of contemporary dance in the Balkans.


Festival production

Fičo Balet is the initiator and organiser of the international festival of contemporary dance CoFestival since 2012.

Since 2014, Fičo Balet has been organising Fičo Dance Journeys, summer workshop festivals featuring international teams of artists and teachers, based on the principles of co-living, learning through sharing, and cooperation. The festival is held in Slovenia and international locations.
