This year’s Tanzfestival Winterthur will take place from November 20–28. In addition to performance introductions, artist talks, and numerous performances, several workshops will also be offered. One of these is a three-day workshop led by Rafaële Giovanola, Danse Suisse member, choreographer, and founder of CocoonDance. She was recently awarded the 2027 “Deutscher Tanzpreis” – we congratulate her on this outstanding achievement!

The intensive three-day workshop, aimed at professional dancers, will take place from November 25–27. The regular participation fee is CHF 180. However, participants may apply for a scholarship. A total of ten scholarships are available for the workshop. The scholarship covers the workshop fee, festival meals, tickets, and accommodation if required.

Interested applicants may apply until October 1, 2026, by submitting a CV and a letter of motivation in English.
