Beskrivning
The Royal Swedish Ballet warmly invites applications from dancers who have a solid base in both classical and contemporary techniques.
We are seeking artists who demonstrate high technical skills, and who also bring curiosity, creativity, and a genuine passion for dance, classical as well as contemporary, to the studio and to the stage.
We do prioritise previous professional experience and welcome dancers who would contribute their artistry to the company.
Additionally, we are also looking for young dancers for our Youth Programme that is integrated into the company. They will receive extra support and coaching during the entire season.
