Story

Nya Rörelsen / The New Movement

Rörelsen Koreografer i Skåne are reforming as Nya Rörelsen. The changing of our name reflects partly this change, but more clearly it is shown in our understanding of what we believe is now the collectives ambition. Nya Rörelsen has always existed as a place where dance professionals can exchange competences, many of Malmö’s current dance professionals have learnt by having passed through Nya Rörelsen and capitalised on this to pursue their careers. As the collective now enter a new phase with predominantly new members, the group wants to clarify it’s place and role, and believe that this is to act as a ‘green house’ for professional growth, where emerging dance makers can develop their knowledge and skills relating to the production of personal artistic projects, public out-reach, and the navigating of educational pedagogy, all seen as the crucial aspects in which to not only find an artistic voice, but one that will have a confident span of life. Here, within the collective, new members are able to develop through learning from other experienced members that understand the systems in place, as well as being challenged by them, enabling them the tools and means to move forward in building ground-breaking work and a secure career of dance art production.
