Vienna Dance Festival Impulstanz Kicks Off

W460

Vienna's international dance festival Impulstanz kicked off Tuesday with over 40 companies from around the world performing everything from contemporary to Bollywood shows over the next month.

Among the regulars to grace the stage of the festival are Belgium's Ultima Vez and the Compagnie Marie Chouinard from Canada, as well as Britain's Akram Khan Company and La La La Human Steps from Toronto.

Alongside the performances, which will open officially Wednesday with the Bollywood extravaganza "Jhoom" by Mumbai's Terence Lewis Company, some 100 workshops will also be held over the next four weeks, ranging from yoga and hip hop to African dance and repertoire.

Impulstanz runs until August 14.
