  • The documentation centre

    The Contredanse dance documentation centre was established in 1989 to spread the word about the history of dance, support learning and research, create a repository and challenge the archiving and transmission of dance.

    Its document collection has grown over time, especially with respect to Contredanse’s key themes: improvisation, composition, transmission, somatic practices and the history of contemporary dance.

    It also showcases the dance heritage of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation.
