The workshop "All Abled - Dance for ALL!" is aimed at anyone who eventually wants to dance or has always danced. It is an invitation to all people, regardless of age, origin, gender, language skills, physical and cognitive potential or previous dance experience. Based on contemporary dance and the DanceAbility Method®, Andrea Marton, Ute Schmitt and Vanessa Thron invite you to create moving dialogues and dance encounters beyond predetermined forms at your own pace and to play with individual possibilities alone, in pairs or in a group.
Andrea Marton, Ute Schmitt and Vanessa Thron work as a team at the interface between dance art, cultural education and socioculture. Andrea Marton develops and researches intergenerational formats in dance art and mediation, is part of the management team of Fokus Tanz, Munich and on the board of Aktion Tanz - Bundesverband Tanz in Bildung und Gesellschaft e. V. (Federal Association for Dance in Education and Society). Her working method is characterized by participatory, age-independent and democracy-sensitizing approaches to education for schools, studios, stages and public spaces. Her curiosity lies in the diversity of dancers in the context of social developments.
Ute Schmitt is a dance educator and curative pedagogue who works in the field of low-threshold cultural education for all. She leads dance projects in daycare centers, kindergartens and schools and is active in the further training of dance educators, teachers and students. She founded the initiative Community Dance Munich with Andrea Marton, among others, and organizes the Tanz inklusive! program in Munich. She wants to bring people with different abilities and backgrounds to dance and thus create a culture of dance that is open to all people and does not exclude anyone.
Vanessa Thron is a graduate philosopher and aspiring social worker. She was active in the performing arts from an early age and, as a woman in a wheelchair with a disability, discovered contemporary dance as a space in which body diversity can be used as an individual artistic potential. She is interested in the topics of biography, body and materiality in the relationship between applied and performing arts and as a way of accessing dance and movement. She works in various community dance projects in Munich.
