Codes of the Dancefloor - Social Dance Workshop
Codes of the Dancefloor - Social Dance Workshop
Join DARKMATTER Collective and Studio/K during Amsterdam Dance Event as they join forces with Rooted in Culture.
The culture is essential in the House and Club landscape. It’s rooted in Black culture, queerness, underground spaces, and liberated bodies. Rooted in Culture's mission is to explore club culture through movement, education and inspiration. After two successful previous editions, this year Rooted in Culture will collaborate with DARKMATTER Collective & Studio/K, and focus on the Codes of the Dancefloor.
The day will consist of a film screening, social dance workshop, and club night with renowned local DJs and an open deck slot for emerging talent.
This social dance workshop will be guided by Sarada Sarita and Kim Tawjoeram (part of Native Moons), who share a dance background within the street and club dance styles. Through different social dance games, you will have tools to liberate your body and feel free on the dancefloor.
Price: €7,50
Price combi ticket with party: €12.50

In 2007, Studio/K opened its doors in Amsterdam’s multicultural East side. The monumental, century-old school building was transformed into a cinema, nightclub, restaurant and bar. All of this is run completely and exclusively by students.

Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.
Please double-check the promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!
Yes, the Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events. Even if a festival event is sold out, you can still access the event with your ADE Pro Pass wristband. During ADE there are over 500 festival events and hundreds more cultural and conference events you can enter with the wristband. One thing to keep in mind is that there is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for ADE Pro wristband holders. This means that, for some of the more crowded events, you have to arrive early to ensure attendance. Once capacity is reached, ADE Pro holders will be let into the event on a one in-one-out basis.
We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.
Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.
