praxis oslo

is a laboratory for the study of dance and movement.

Established by freelance dance artists in 2013, PRAXIS grew out of a need for alternative spaces to gather and share knowledge in the free field. We focus on the new, the experimental and the performative, creating spaces for research and community building.

We want to create an inside for outsiders, a container for dance artists who don’t fit neatly into institutional frameworks. Welcome!

WHAT WE DO

We organise regular classes called PRAXIS Morning, workshops called PRAXIS Lab, seminars, performance and social events.

We run an Artist in Residency programme, with an open call twice a year, which provides studio space and sharings for new work. The residency sharings are open to all within the field and aim to bring others in to exciting new projects and research.

We also offer affordable rehearsal space, which is subsidised for newly established artists and artists without project funding.
