We are delighted to announce that the twelfth edition of the Dancing on the Edge Scholarship Program will once again be held in Amsterdam. This program provides aspiring young talent from West Asia (also known as the Middle East) and North Africa (WANA) with a unique opportunity to attend the Amsterdam Summer Intensive, a three-week dance workshop program in July. Since 2012, we have proudly awarded these scholarships in collaboration with Henny Jurriƫns Studio (HJS), a prestigious dance-training institute for professional-level dancers located in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Stay connected with this page and our social media channels to stay updated on the progress of the two selected dancers Kaouther Mhalla and an anonymous dancer.
Over the course of three weeks, these talented dancers will engage in a variety of dance classes, including ballet, contemporary, Gaga, and more. They will also participate in stimulating workshops focused on repertoire and creation. This program offers an exceptional opportunity for dancers to immerse themselves in an international setting alongside other dedicated dancers pursuing professional careers. The Amsterdam Summer Intensive will take place from July 10th to 28th.
