DANS IN ONTWIKKELING EDITIE 22
Peito | Estala | Bate
In a world that never stops moving, this dance performance invites you to pause, to feel rhythm as resistance and movement as freedom. Rooted in Hip Hop’s spirit of freestyle and self-expression, the dancers reclaim their own pace through breath, groove, and grounded movement. Each performer carries a rhythm of their own, responding and pushing against a shared pulse. As their rhythms collide, diverge, and reconnect, new patterns of unity emerge; raw, unpredictable, and alive.
Inspired by the Portuguese rhythm game Boom | Snap | Clap, the piece unfolds as a collective exploration of tempo, tension, and togetherness – an invitation to journey through the pulse between chaos and calm, where movement becomes a whisper to slow down, listen inwardly, and return to the rhythm within.

Second performance
Emo
In the performance Emo, choreographer Anne Suurendonk explores the emotional world of women. In a society where social codes often restrict women from expressing emotions openly, Suurendonk wonders: what happens when we let go of these societal norms? The result is a space where emotions are fully allowed to be felt and shared.
Two powerful dancers, Julia Baino and Evelien Jansen, bring these emotions to life. Without shame, they make them tangible and palpable. They are both raw and explosive as well as vulnerable and pure. Driven by Suurendonk’s characteristic movement language, which is rhythmical and dynamic, the duet comes alive. Supported by the music of Tom van Wee, the dancers take us on an experience where we don’t just watch but also feel. Suurendonk invites us to show emotions without a filter and to feel without judgment.
