At this free workshop in Hall E at Gasteig HP8, age, physical fitness or dance experience are irrelevant. Community dance is for young and old, for people with and without disabilities and for everyone who finally wants to dance or has always danced.
The workshop leaders Andrea Marton, Ute Schmitt and Ralf Otto and other dancers will accompany anyone who is curious through two hours of guided dance improvisation – on the occasion of the Bachfest Munich on this day to melodies from the Bach universe.

The event is organised in collaboration with Tanz für Alle/DanceAbility.
