KOMA
KOMA aims for the future.
As a contemporary dance company, we are driven by the desire to look forward, in actions that foster not only development and expansion, but also access within the art form, for what we believe to be a continuous comprehensive development of talent.
KOMA doesn't do it and doesn't want it alone, that's why it actively collaborates with national and international artists, to cultivate meaningful connections with artists, audiences and local communities.
Established in 2022 through a strategic alliance between Danse Grunduddannelsen (DGU) and the Royal Theater Ballet School Odense, our presence in Odense is instrumental in promoting art accessibility through local collaborations and extending artistic reach beyond major cultural centers. Our ensemble features a diverse cast of dancers from Denmark, Canada, Greece, and Brazil, uniting varied professional experiences and backgrounds. Complementing this, our internship program offers advanced students intensive refinement and practical experience within a professional company environment. KOMA profoundly embraces the diversity of the international dance community, fostering a vibrant culture of artistic authenticity.
Born in Odense
KOMA made a debut on the stage at the Odense Teater in March 2023 and since then has performed relevant works with artists who stand out on the national and international scene. KOMA aims to provide a unique opportunity for promising young artists in their first years of experience, providing full-time training at a high level with the technical and artistic tools for successful journey in the dance.
KOMA Ballet was created in 2022 in a collaboration between Basic Dance Training | DANSEGRUNDUDDANNELSEN and the Royal Theatre Odense Ballet School.
