Ateak Ireki Dantzan / Dancing

25.Jun - 26. Jun, 2024 Cod. K04-24

Description

Basque culture and dance are excellent instruments for young Basques in the diaspora to get closer to Basque culture and build a network of relationships with young Basques. Basque dance is an effective instrument to structure the community and get closer to Basque culture, but it is even more powerful and effective among Basques in the diaspora, so body language offers an excellent opportunity for the integration of both communities and the promotion of Basque culture.

Precisely because we need a strong Basque Community, which has presence in the square of the world, we started last year the Ateak Ireki project (www.ateakireki.eus). This program aims to contribute to strengthening relationships between young people from the Basque Diaspora and those from Euskal Herria. In 2023, 37 young people of Basque origin moved to Goierri for a three-week stay with their Guipuzkoan host families. Together with the Maizpide euskaltegi, special courses were organized to learn Basque and Basque culture.

Young people from the United States showed their interest in reinforcing the offer of Basque dance courses. For them, Basque dance is one of the most important exponents of their Basque identity. This Summer Course will be organized taking into account this demand, the benefits of dance in the training of young people and the possibilities it offers to access Basque culture.

The Course will be organized in collaboration with the Dantzan Ikasi program, dedicated to the continuous training of Euskal Dantza teachers. Dantzan Ikasi is a program of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa that has a 15-year history in this field and through it, they will attract dancers from the Basque Country to the course, thus offering the possibility for young people from the diaspora and the country to take the course together and build a network of relationships.

The Course will address the theoretical and practical aspects and will mainly use English and Basque. The main sessions will be offered by expert teachers in the field of Basque dance and the dance will also allow them to live in the ritual context of a Basque festival.
