SARA GAARDBO

Sara Gaardbo founded DANSEUDDANNELSEN.DK in 2006 and has been the director of the education ever since. Sara Gaardbo has dedicated her life to the dance world and the performing arts both as a dancer, choreographer, designer, teacher, and director. 

In her early life Sara was a part of the theatre group called Dr. Dante, which was founded by theatre director Nikolaj Cederholm. 

Sara is educated from Danshögskolan in Stockholm in 1996 and started immediately after her graduation as a professional dancer, teacher, and eventually as a choreographer. Among other things she worked as a choreographer on the theatre production “Simon” at Østre Gasværk, Copenhagen, by Nikolaj Cederholm. 

Sara has different jobs as a choreographer, teacher and consultant concurrently with the daily operation of DANSEUDDANNELSEN.DK. Sara has taught aspirants at The Royal Theatre and professional dancers at Dansehallerne. During Copenhagen fashion week Sara has choreographed and staged the show of the Faroese designer Barbara I Gongini. 

Sara loves the synergy in the interaction between styles and different art forms. She is driven by her longing for dancers daring to reach beyond the edge.
