Kristina's Broadway Connection is a training center for dance and musical performers in Vienna - Leopoldstadt , Austria .

history

The musical performer, choreographer and trained dance teacher KrisTina Decker founded the Broadway Connection as a dance studio for children and young people in 2003, as well as the Broadway Dance Academy (now the Broadway Academy of Musical Theater) as a professional training for musical performers. The tradition of the Children's Musical Company , of which Decker was artistic director for many years, was continued in the Broadway Company as the first playing field for young, budding musical actors.

The origin of the name Broadway Connection lies in Decker's North American roots and her first major engagement as a musical actress in Cats in the USA

Dance studio

Here children and young people are regularly instructed in the dance styles of ballet, jazz, contemporary, steppe, acro, hip-hop, etc. The hobby classes are aimed at beginners and dancers who only want to dance 1–2 times a week. The competition classes consist of more intensive dance training in numerous styles several times a week and regularly take part in national and international dance championships. The competition classes also appear at events such as balls, city festivals, etc.
