Bayerisches Junior Ballett München

In the organizer's words:

Bavarian Junior Ballet Munich - Junior Company of the Bavarian State Ballet
with the young stars of the Heinz Bosl Foundation under the direction of Ivan Liška

Bavarian Junior Ballet Munich

When the dancers of the Bavarian Junior Ballet Munich take to the stage, youthful joy leaps like a spark from the stage into the auditorium. The young people who share their talent with the audience are touching. The ensemble was founded in 2010 as the first junior company in Germany and, with its sixteen members aged between 17 and 20, is still the largest junior company today. Since then, the ensemble under the direction of Ivan Liška has already danced its way into the hearts of audiences far beyond the borders of Bavaria: as cultural ambassadors of the Free State of Bavaria and the City of Munich, the ensemble has already performed with great success on stages throughout Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, the Czech Republic, Israel and Hong Kong.

The youthful verve with which the young dancers conquer the stages has become a recognizable feature for audiences and critics alike. In the maximum two years that the young members remain in the company, they are intensively prepared for their professional careers. Former members of the Bavarian Junior Ballet Munich now dance in the Bavarian State Ballet, Stuttgart Ballet, Hamburg Ballet, Berlin State Ballet, Friedrichstadtpalast Berlin, Ballet of Difference in Cologne, Helsinki, Oslo, Prague, Amsterdam, Berlin, Stockholm, Seoul, Pilsen, Graz, Wiesbaden, Antwerp, Warsaw, Ostrava, Vienna, Greifswald, Hanover, Dresden, Brno, Flensburg, Paris and many other places.

Heinz Bosl Foundation

The Heinz Bosl Foundation was established by Konstanze Vernon on January 12, 1978 in memory of Heinz Bosl. To this day, the non-profit foundation pursues the goal of promoting classical ballet, dance and its reputation in the public eye, as well as the training and training conditions for young dancers in Germany.

By establishing the foundation in 1978, Konstanze Vernon and Fred Hoffmann committed themselves to preserving the legacy of Heinz Bosl and giving talented young dancers the opportunity to develop artistically.
