Presentation of the Dance Group

The Dance Group of the Universitat de València was born in the year 2017/18

GENERAL GUIDELINES:

The Dance Group of the Universitat de València is born from the wish of working in the world of dance in a rigorous and steady way. We also want to make dance known, not only as an art, a physical discipline or a show, but also as a medium of personal artistic growth for our students.

The activity of the Dance Group is structured in workshops in which the participants are helped by a teacher and professional choreographer who also prepares the shows.
