The Dance Studio Theater is a professional dance theater operating since 1998 in Banská Bystrica under the direction of Mgr. Zuzana Ďuricová Hájková. Unique in its artistic focus, it paves the way of authorial work, which respects artists in their creative expression and opinion. It continuously supports the creation of original dance productions and their regular staging, and brings current trends to Slovak theater.

As part of this mission, it premiered 51 feature productions, including 5 performances for children and many outdoor and educational dance projects. In its 20 years of operation on the Slovak theater scene, it has presented 1,247 performances, of which 329 were on guest domestic and foreign stages, and presented its work to more than 116,000 spectators.

Since 2010, as the only established entity in Slovakia, it has been operating on its own permanent scene.

Reflecting on the current socio-political situation from 2014-2017, when the Banská Bystrica self-governing region (the founder of the theater), under the leadership of ĽSNS members, became a tool for spreading hatred and questioning the need for art, the Dance Studio Theater also became a civic entity. As a strong opponent of opinions, he stood up to pseudo-national and pseudo-cultural moods questioning the need for contemporary art.

The Dance Studio Theater regularly presents its productions on several domestic stages and has represented Slovakia at prestigious international festivals in the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Russia, Germany, Italy, Belgium, France, Egypt, Japan and India. Characteristic artistic attributes brought him a number of awards, including the award of the Mayor of the City of B. Bystrica and the Award of the Minister of Culture of the Slovak Republic.
