Stories from Budapest: Weekdays in Hungarian Dance Academy


Last week I started my official Erasmus + program in Hungarian Dance Academy. Earlier weeks I have been with other programs. I will do my exchange studies with program of modern dancers but I only take a part in practice training (because of hungarian language). During last week I have met very different kind of dancers and take a part in different dance lessons. Unfortunately communication between me and my class  mates is limited because they mostly speak hungarian. But I am happy that dance is also kind of way to communicate and see the other people.

My school week runs from Monday to Friday. I wake up at 6:40, be in studio at 7:45 and start the ballet class at 8:30. I have more or less classes during the day and usually I come back to home at 6.30 pm. In addition of ballet classes I also have jazz dance from Monday to Thursday. My first jazz class last Monday little shock because it was very hard with complicated exercises… Twice a week I have ”rehearsal coaching and choreography” where students create choreographies and teach them to other students. I also have to create my own choregraphy and I am quite exited about that. Then I have also limón technique, tap dance and hip hop once a week.


I’ve been in Budapest now for four weeks and I still try adapt to culture and school. I think next three months will go very fast and I just hope that I could soon adapt to this environment. This semester will be huge learning process for me and I am sure I will be mental and physical stronger after this semester.
