In addition to its professional art training, it is also committed to the broad representation of the role of dance in mental health, so its training includes training on stress management and burnout prevention, as well as training on the topic of "dance for health".
The results of their work are truly visible in the world by their graduates who dance in world-famous companies such as the Győr Ballet. They are particularly proud of the dancers who graduated from them, as well as the instructors who contributed to their professional development.
János Kiss, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Hungarian Dance University Foundation, Vice President of HAA, László Velekei, Director of the Győr Ballet, Yudai Uematsu, Soloist of the Győr Ballet, Asuka Horio, Manager of the Hungarian Dance University, and Bernadett Keszeiné Tóth, Manager of the Győr Ballet, gave lectures on the topic in Osaka on 25 June.
A month earlier Hungarian National Days were celebrated at the World Expo with performances by the Hungarian State Folk Ensemble, among others. The programs were concluded with a sold-out performance of the Hungarian State Folk Ensemble's latest performance, the balladistic story The Wedding. The music was composed by István Pál Szalonna and the choreography was made by Gábor Mihályi.
The performance was a great success, with the audience celebrating with a standing ovation.
