Microdancing in Brussels with Ari Levitt
3 October 2026, Brussels
What is microdancing?
Microdancing is a dance form based on very small, subtle movements and an intimate, nuanced connection between partners. Instead of big steps or flashy moves, it focuses on tiny gestures, breath-sized shifts, and minimal body communication. This allows dancers to truly listen—to the music and to each other—creating a quiet yet deeply expressive shared experience.
Who is this event for?
Microdancing is easy to pick up and with our 3 workshops, you will be good to go for the evening! Whether you’re completely new to dance or highly experienced in one or several styles, you’ll be able to find a partner and share a meaningful moment on the dance floor.
What will the event be like?
We’ll start with open-level workshops that introduce useful tools and techniques for microdancing. These sessions are also a playful way to build connection, trust, and a shared dance language among participants.
The potluck will nourish both body and spirit, giving us time to relax and get to know one another.
In the evening, there will be space to freely practice and explore microdancing.

One day of dancing is never enough—and we agree. While the microdancing event itself is a one-day experience, there are plenty of opportunities to keep dancing in Brussels on Sunday. Check out the Programme.
