Our association is the legal successor to a sports association that has been operating for 20 years. In 2016, we changed our name because, in addition to competing, we also set ourselves the goal of creating dance theatre productions, providing a space for rethinking the fusion of different forms of movement.
The leader of our ensemble is Gabriella Kézér, PhD, who holds a PhD in theatre and performing arts, is a Bonis Bona and Nívó award-winning dance teacher and is an assistant professor at the Hungarian Dance University. Her goal is to gather and mentor young students who will later choose dance as their profession. Among the performers, we meet dance artists who have completed their studies at the Hungarian Dance University’s Institute for Choreographers and Dance Teachers, as well as students who are currently pursuing their studies or former students who are already applying their knowledge on the international stage.
We are proud of the domestic and international achievements of the association’s competitors. We have achieved numerous finalist and podium positions in various dance styles, and we can also boast a European championship title. Several of our dancers have been awarded the title of Good Student – Good Athlete of the Republic of Hungary thanks to their achievements in international competitions. Those who wish to participate in community life as competitive athletes have the opportunity to do so as members of the Kézér Dance Lab Sports Association, officially as certified athletes of the Hungarian Dance Sport Association.
In keeping with the demands of the age, we are increasingly focusing on conscious body training through the aesthetic gymnastics associated with the name of Sára Berczik, and on improvisation methods, as well as on learning and fusing various jazz, modern and contemporary dance techniques.
The selected young people receive training within the framework of a special programme, but the school is also open to young people who simply want to exercise.
The ensemble offers talented students of the Hungarian Dance University the opportunity to participate in adult training sessions, stage performances and other projects.
Every year, the association organises high-quality workshops with the participation of internationally renowned masters and dance artists, bringing international knowledge to Hungary.
Young, talented teachers can serve as role models for aspiring children and junior dancers. They are all excellent professionals and outstanding dance artists. In addition to competing, the next generation of talent has the opportunity to perform in productions to showcase their talent.
