All over the year, the CSC offers the chance to attend choreographic residences in the various available performing spaces to many national and international choreographers. These residences are aimed at furthering research projects and working on the creation of new performances. In addition, guest artists are often involved in training activities offered for free to local dancers and choreographers. At the end of the residence, artists usually present a rehearsal open to public. This public indeed has proved to be more and more interested in meeting and dialoguing with the choreographers and dancers engaged in the creative process. Many activities of this kind have already been started by the CSC. Among the most important events in 2010, a course carried out according to the higher professional training for the performing arts promoted by the Regione del Veneto and in collaboration with the Irigem Training Institute. Six professional contemporary dancers were selected after a national announcement. An innovative course for its training modes and the trainers’ excellent quality: Emio Greco (The Netherlands), Yasmeen Godder (Israel), Carlotta Sagna (France) Nigel Charnock, Gitta Wigro, Lucy Cash e Robert Clark (UK), Simona Bertozzi (Italy), Sharon Fridman (Israel-Spain).
