Dance education
Maribor Dance Room has 22 years-long experience in the field of dance education for children and adults. Its programmes are organised so as to offer a spectrum of different dance techniques, necessary for subsequent professional dance training and production. By introducing the young into the processes of contemporary art creation, Maribor Dance Room provides a strong foundation for the development of contemporary dance in Maribor. Numerous choreographers and pedagogues, who started their dance career at the Maribor Dance Room, continue their training at renowned dance academies across Europe.
Each year, Plesna izba prepares two larger productions, where the students present their work to the wider audience: the New Year's production takes place in the Union Hall and the final performance in Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Maribor. The young dancers continually present their choreographies at Opus - Festival of Dance Miniatures and Živa Festival, organised by the Public Fund for Cultural Activities of the Republic of Slovenia (JSKD) to encourage dance creativity of the young.
The all-year-round education offers regular workshops different and classes for different levels and different age groups. The programme covers ballet, jazz and modern techniques, release technique, as well as intensive classes of different contemporary approaches to dance taught by different (mainly) Slovene dancers and choreographers. It also organises a dance dramaturgy workshop, classes of oriental and flamenco dance, as well as offers weekly drumming workshops.
Stage production
Maribor Dance Room annually produces three to five productions of established artists as well as gives opportunities to its students to present their work. Dance Room thus produced works by Snježana Premuš (From Scratch #4, Stories of the Body 3 - You [Zgodbe o telesu 3 - Ti (2008)), Sebastijan Geč (Midnight Judgement [Polnočna presoja] (2009), co-produced by WUK, Vienna, and Brut, Vienna), Mojca Kasjak (Strange Things Happened in the Town 2 [V mestu se dogajajo čudne stvari 2] (2008)), Nina Milin (I Can See Under the Skin [Vidim pod kožo] (2009), Anita Čanadi, Mojca Ussar, and co-produced Tina Valentan's performance When the Moon is Rising [Ko luna raste] (2008), produced by City of Women International Festival of Contemporary Arts, etc. Maribor Dance Room also produces improvisation events held by various makers also in non-theatrical spaces.
In 2008, Maribor Dance Room prepared the project SLO Moves which presented Slovene contemporary dance at the International Dance Fair in Düsseldorf, Germany, for which Tomaž Praunseis created the video that presents production conditions in Slovenia and gives an overview of the dance scene.
Festivals
Since 2007, Maribor Dance Room organises Platforma - Young Authors' Festival, which grew out of the need for continual possibilities for presentation of younger Slovene dance makers and is closely linked to the education programmes of Maribor Dance Room. The festival was warmly welcomed and appreciated by the Slovene critics.
Since 2009, it organises NagiB Experimental Movement Festival, which is also intended to younger authors but focuses on foreign productions.
