about the artist

JSLN Dance Company was founded in 2012, originally as JuSt Live daNce Productions by Sören Magnus Niewelt and Jessica Sarah Larbig, with a vision of bringing dance to a wider public and to demonstrate the versatility of dance and dancers. Artistic Director Niewelt has a strong belief that dancers must be versatile in all genres of dance in order to bring life to his own exciting choreography. The company has now developed to a very strong neo-classical company which combines music and dance to create excitement for all ages.

Watched JSLN today with my daughter and her friend. We enjoyed all three pieces, but our favourite was 'Allo 'Allo. The girls are 10 years old, but they could still follow the story and found it hilarious. The workshop afterwards was entertaining and informative in a relaxed atmosphere. The girls enjoyed being able to participate. They are looking forward to tomorrow's extended workshop. JSLN are such a beautiful company of people. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

This was certainly a good choice to end the Fringe on: a very satisfying piece of contemporary ballet. JSLN Dance is definitely a company to look out for in future.

Provided access to the venues for audiences is not an issue, performances are accessible to all. The company has experience of working to develop school workshops tailored to the needs of disabled children of all levels of cognition as well as performing in care homes for dementia sufferers and in hospices.

To complement our performances, we are offering workshops to schools to introduce children to the interaction between music, dance and the stage, as well as dance workshops and masterclassses to local dance schools, tailored to the requirements of each school. In addition, we offer "behind the scenes" experiences allowing audiences, particularly families the opportunity to learn how a dance company functions.

JSLN Dance Company are happy to work with performance venues on the most appropriate financial deals to suit both parties whether on a ticket split or full fee basis.
