NIDT, which is the professional international contemporary touring company of The Danceworx Performing Arts Academy, is one among the top ​invited​ ​dance groups​ to perform at the world’s biggest contemporary dance gathering.

The Festival Programme of the Tanzmesse is an opportunity for Tanzmesse Exhibitors to present their work live, in the form of fully produced performances or in the form of open studios, on eleven of the best stages for ​​dance in Düsseldorf. ​Ashley Lobo and NIDT have been selected by the International Tanzmesse board of jury members from over 600+ applications from across the world and will be among the 50​ best groups to showcase their work, ‘Amaara - A Journey of Love’.

Ashley Lobo is naturally ecstatic about the ​​​invitation​ as he feels that it is a great platform to perform and carve a place of prominence in the international market. With all the dignitaries from the world of contemporary dance, especially from Europe attending the conference and looking out for the best in contemporary dance choreography, this conference would further open new doors of opportunities for NIDT to be a part of other dance festivals and projects. 

​Ashley Lobo says,"We are aiming to ​showcase and leave a powerful impact of artistic contemporary dance across the world. Along with traditional dance forms, India could be a leader of International dance forms as well with our immense talent. We just need to be able to showcase them on the right platforms."
