‘Dance Design’ dance workshop – Silvia & Danilo (16 March 2024)
DANCE DESIGN
From classical to contemporary… come and join us on the journey of becoming a dancer!
Dance workshop with Silvia Diletto and Danilo Aiello, Sat 16 March 2024
These two experienced choreographers and stage dancers would like to teach you the basics of the world of dance and help you deepen your knowledge. Particular emphasis will be placed on both theoretical knowledge and practical exercises and movement sequences. To prepare, there will be a Pilates warm-up to help you master the correct breathing and posture that are so important for dancers. Insights into the fundamentals of ballet – which are essential for every dancer, regardless of their specialism – and a modern/contemporary choreography will round off the workshop.

Our two workshop instructors: Silvia Diletto
Silvia Diletto completed her professional training as a dancer and dance teacher in her native Italy. Her successful stage career as a musical theatre performer then took her all over Europe. Among other things, she danced in *The Buddy Holly Story* in Hamburg, *Tabaluga and Lilli* and *Dance of the Vampires*, regularly choreographed for AIDA Cruises, and is an instructor at renowned training schools such as the Joop van den Ende School and Stage School Hamburg. As a dancer, her heart therefore beats particularly for musical theatre dance, lyrical jazz and contemporary, but of course ballet has also been a part of Silvia’s life for as long as she can remember, and her students benefit from her wealth of experience in this area too. Danilo Aiello
Born in Italy, Danilo, like Silvia, graduated from the Accademia Danzart Marigliano Napoli in their shared homeland. His own dance career has now spanned over 20 years and has seen him perform in many successful musical productions in Italy, Germany and other international shows around the globe. Over the past 8 years, Danilo has had engagements including the Disney musical productions ‘Aladdin’ and ‘Frozen’ in Hamburg, the ‘The Bodyguard’ production in Vienna, and the European premiere of ‘Pretty Woman’. In the world of television, he has made a name for himself as a commercial dancer, has been booked for programmes such as “Die Chart Show”, and has performed on stage with “No Angels” and “Blümchen”. His latest project will be the European tour of the “Aida” opera spectacle, which is set to premiere in Hamburg on 2 February 2024.
Alongside his stage career, Danilo decided 10 years ago that he also wanted to pass on his knowledge and began teaching: ballet, contemporary, modern contemporary, jazz and hip hop.
