ORGANISER
Dear Friends,
a very special event is coming our way with the 16th International Dance Festival TANZOLYMP, inspiring participating dancers to utmost performances. Over the past years the youngest participants, the advanced and the nearly-graduated dancers have all displayed unique creativity and vitality. We can certainly look forward again to this year’s event.
I would like to thank all parents, teachers, jury members and my very important partners whose generous support has enabled this privately financed festival for so many years and make it possible again in 2019. In this way, the TANZOLYMP has become one of the largest dance festivals in the world, developing into an internationally appreciated, exemplary dance initiative.
In a world linked via internet to rapid, global communications, we are still far from being at peace. Therefore, every chance to unite young people of all nationalities and mentalities in a peaceful competition is well worth the effort. Thus, participants come together in mutual understanding beyond all differences, taking this experience home with them, making it a part of their lives. This is the TANZOLYMP’s ambition, the intellectual exchange on the legacy of dance with all its varying backgrounds as well as a pathway leading toward the future.
Best regards and dance on!

TANZOLYMP WORLDWIDE
Over the past four years, as an aspect of the TANZOLYMP, regional rounds have been taking place in various countries around the world. The TANZOLYMP regional rounds first and foremost aim to foster young talents. Among other benefits, regional winners will take part in the final in Berlin at the expenses of the TANZOLYMP committee.
The TANZOLYMP regional rounds in Sao Paulo, Brazil can be described as nothing less than a tremendous success – the next round will take place here in 2018. Directly thereafter, TANZOLYMP looks forward to traveling to Lima, Peru. We are also very proud of our cooperation with Danzamerica in Cordoba, Argentina. The regional rounds in Moscow, Russia will take place in October 2017.
This year, TANZOLYMP has expanded their horizons to encompass new regional rounds in Odessa at the Philharmonic Hall and at the National Opera and Ballet Theater in May 2017. In November it’s off to Italy and to Seoul, South Korea.
