Dancing makes you happy! That's why we offer contemporary dance clubs in Darmstadt, Wiesbaden and Frankfurt for people who are not dance professionals but have a great desire to dance themselves. The dance clubs are aimed at different age groups. Each dance club meets once a week over the course of a year. In addition, all dance clubs of the Tanzplattform Rhein-Main come together once a year at a joint dance club workshop day. The season also ends with a joint performance by all dance clubs.

Since 2022, the creative expressions of modern dance in Germany have been included in the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. In a time when almost everything tangible can be acquired, the intangible is perhaps gaining in importance. This interdisciplinary workshop is mainly about dance, but also about music, theater, philosophy and everything else you want to find valuable in this treasure trove - with the dedication to create together- with your own body, your voice and small digital and analog instruments . "Mixed-styles, mixed-able, mixed-age, mixed-colours" - a small reflection of society with its visions of social togetherness, but also a mouthpiece for individual biographies.

Want to experience how movements flow into each other; without interruption, from one level to another, through space and with each other? In this dance club you can explore what it's like to feel a fluid body, play with the floor, and integrate these sensations into your own movement repertoire. The basic idea is to move fluidly on the floor. Lukas Robitschko has been working with his concept "Groundmovement" for 10 years and invites all movement enthusiasts from the age of 16 with or without previous experience to try something new!
