Study Dance Studies in Frankfurt am Main (2026/27)

Germany offers a vibrant and intellectually rich environment for studying Dance Studies, combining a celebrated tradition in contemporary dance with strong institutional support for the performing arts. The country has played a pivotal role in shaping modern dance history—from the expressionist movement of the early twentieth century to today's internationally acclaimed companies like Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch, Sasha Waltz & Guests, and the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company. German universities and conservatories approach dance as both an artistic practice and an academic discipline, offering programs that integrate movement training, choreography, dance history, notation, and critical theory. Students engage with questions of embodiment, cultural identity, and the social dimensions of performance while developing practical skills in studios equipped for contemporary exploration.
