Short summary of the content
The aim of the Tutoring lessons is that students learn to reflect, become aware of what is required of a professional dancer and how they can proactively shape their own development into a future dance artist.
In these lessons, the student discovers how to prepare as best as possible for an existence in the national and/or international dance world. In addition, the student experiences the process of developing into a dance artist as consciously and self-directed as possible; this relates to all areas of learning except the technical dance/performance area.
