Welcome!
We’re looking forward to host and teach you in this very supportive surrounding, that has been holding so many dances and inspired many groups with life changing conscious work.
"Being part of Ground Floor Lab was truly valuable. Learning through the resources and connecting with so many dancers was incredibly enriching"
Ameli Tanchitsa
GFL student


The pricing structure of the Ground Floor Lab aligns with Open Floor’s value of inclusivity. There are differences among our participants geographically, in social status, and privilege. We offer more flexible and inclusive price options to embody economic justice.
Together we can make this programme accessible and inclusive!
The costs will cover the fees for two trainers and a crew of assistants and general costs for promotion and material. And it will be supporting the Open Floor International non-profit organization.
All prices include accomodation and food.
50 hours of instructed study in Embodied Movement Practices*
To support your understanding of the Open Floor curriculum, it is highly recommended that some of those hours be in Open Floor Movement Practice. If there is none available in your area, you can find online offerings in our calendar of events.
