The Luxor Dance Company can look back on a rich history, its roots reaching back to 1978. For over fifteen years, the “Dance Ensemble of the Dresden Cultural Palace” was based in Saxony’s largest cultural and congress center. In 1992, the entire team moved to the city’s oldest variety theater, the “Luxor Palace” (formerly “Café Prag”), located directly on the Altmarkt (Old Market Square), and from then on called itself the “Luxor Ballet.”
In April 2002, Manja Lätzsch took over the ballet company and founded the Luxor Dance Company, located in the heart of Dresden in the Bamberger Straße office complex, offering excellent training facilities: a dance studio of over 100 square meters – equipped with a suspended parquet floor, ballet barres, and a mirrored wall. In addition, there are changing rooms, a lounge for guests, a costume collection with over 600 costumes, restrooms, and an office.
Over 150 members train weekly in twelve groups aged between three and 25, and countless courses also provide fun for hobby dancers and fitness enthusiasts of all ages.
