Gaga/dancers classes on Zoom



Kulturakademin i samarbete med Dansalliansen och ilDance

Description

The aim of Gaga/dancers classes is to present dancers with challenges and encourage them to visit unfamiliar places; to notice and change habits and to recognise and unlock the endless possibilities within their own bodies. In the classes we aim for ongoing movement and physical research, while connecting to passion, groove and the virtue of silliness. The Purpose of the classes includes ongoing constant physical exploration, connecting and enhancing the scope of sensations, sophisticating dancers skills and tools box and improving stamina, flexibility, physical strength and awareness. 

Gaga is the movement research that was developed by Ohad Naharin throughout many years, parallel to his work as a choreographer and the artistic director of Batsheva Dance Company. Gaga was originated from the belief in the healing, dynamic, ever-changing power of movement. Gaga classes are predicated on a deep listening to the body and to physical sensations.
Gaga provides a framework for discovering and strengthening the body and adding flexibility, stamina, agility, and skills including coordination and efficiency while stimulating the senses and imagination. The classes offer a workout that investigates form, speed, and effort while traversing additional spectrums such as those between soft and thick textures, delicacy and explosive power, and understatement and exaggeration. Participants awaken numb areas, increase their awareness of habits, and improve their efficiency of movement inside multilayered tasks. 

Gaga/dancers classes employ the specific vocabulary and skills that are part and parcel of a dancer’s knowledge. The layering of familiar skills with Gaga tasks presents dancers with fresh challenges, and throughout the class, teachers prompt the dancers to visit more unfamiliar places and ways of moving as well, unlocking the endlessness of possibilities. Dancers are guided to connect their effort to pleasure and to discover the virtue of silliness.

The movement research of Gaga is in a continual process of evolution, and the classes vary and develop accordingly.
