Movement Exchange Cross-Cultural Dance Exchange in Panama: August 2-9, 2026

Move to Change: Dance in Panama with Movement Exchange | August 2–9, 2026

This August, Movement Exchange is facilitating its annual Panama cross-cultural Open Exchange to dancers of all skill levels and backgrounds — and we want you to be part of it.

Our Open Exchange in Panama is a one-week immersive program for dancers of all skill levels and backgrounds — built around a simple idea: that movement can empower communities, expand perspectives, and develop the kind of leaders the world needs more of. Whether you're a seasoned performer or someone who just loves to dance, you belong here.

What you'll experience:

• Teach and create alongside youth at trusted community partner sites across Panama
• Take masterclasses led by local Panamanian dance professionals
• Explore the history, arts, and culture of Panama firsthand
• Build lasting relationships with dancers from across the U.S. and Panama
• Grow as an artist, educator, and global citizen

No prior international experience required. Move-Ex provides all ground transportation within Panama and supports participants every step of the way.
