Empowering Dancers in Motion is a 6-month non-formal training program designed for young dancers from DancEUA partner countries (Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Sweden and Ukraine), coordinated by Studio Contemporary Dance Company (Croatia).

During the program, 10 selected participants (2 per country) receive daily training, weekend workshops, mentorship from Croatian and European dance artists, and will take part in the creation of new dance performance. The program takes place in Croatia between October 2025 and March 2026.

Sweden is represented in the program by dancers Julia Ekvold Kristiansen and Freya Färnlöf.
