Would you like to dance in Namibia with an NGO that harnesses the arts to engage, inform and empower young people to tackle social issues?

We are seeking 3-6 outstanding, self-motivated and energetic dance students or graduates with a desire to experience dance in a development context. You will be working with 3-6 members of the OYO Dance Troupe to create a piece that will be performed to reach learners and members of the public. The piece will directly tackle a social issue that is pertinent to the moment and the community. We are looking for talented individuals who have the skills to work creatively and to a tight deadline, who are vibrant, reliable performers, comfortable as role models, confident at building new relationships, and ready to adapt quickly to new people in a new culture.

On this Dance Experience with OYO, there will be 4 weeks of full-day rehearsals in Windhoek to exchange skills and create the new piece, immediately followed by performances.
