We have the ambition to introduce children to dance as a gateway to the unknown. To move children. To affirm, encourage, and comfort them in their vulnerability, in their 'otherness', in their creativity. Nothing is as reassuring as the experience of knowing you are not alone, that solidarity exists, and that empathy can be found in a shared experience.
“From the very beginning of my life, I have experienced imagination—both my own and that of others—as a form of salvation. That is the source of de Stilte.” – Jack Timmermans, Artistic Director de Stilte
