A YEAR IN OUR NEW DANCE STUDIO IN ZURICH

A new home for ZeoT Bellydance school Zürich

It’s hard to believe that we’ve already danced a whole year in our new studio in Wipkingen. It’s time to look back and celebrate how we achieved our crowdfunding goal to help fund building work and how we’ve filled the space this year with energy, creativity and fun!

The new ZeoT dance studio is more than a dance school; it’s a beautiful space for our community to meet, dance, be creative and feel at home.

 

FROM A CONCRETE SHELL TO A DANCE STUDIO

After our successful crowdfunding campaign and the amazing support of our community, we were able to begin the transformation of our new location, building partition walls to divide the space into two dance studios, a dance floor that is easy on the joints, mirrored walls, installing showers and hanging acoustic dampening curtains.

 

OUR COMMUNITY & CROWDFUNDING

Through our dance classes, shows and events, we support women from all walks of life to express themselves, and develop strength, flexibility and self-confidence. We’re proud of the diverse and wonderful women who dance with us! We chose wemakeit crowdfunding because we wanted to involve our community in the project to build a new home for ZeoT.

With their support, we achieved our goal and kept ZeoT alive. We cannot express our thanks deeply enough!!

A big thank you also to the Stiftung für Studentisches Wohnen Zürich (SSWZ) & Martin Hauser for their support, creativity & dedication to building our new studio.

 

DANCING THROUGH 2023

The first students to dance in our new studio took part in our introductory course during the first week of January 2023. Many are still dancing with us one year later. We were delighted to welcome new students to our school alongside many loyal and supportive students who’ve danced with us over the years in our old location in Lagerstrasse. This year has seen students taking part in our annual show as well as in our studio Hafla, workshops and crash courses.

 

WE’re ready for 2024!

We can’t help but feel excited about the year that lies ahead. You bet there’ll be even more joyous moments, energetic movement, and a full schedule of dance classes and workshops.
