Shmaga/People
This is a Gaga/People inspired class open to students of all levels. Gaga is a movement language that originated from a belief in the healing, dynamic, ever-changing power of movement. It was developed by Ohad Naharin and is the daily training method of the Batsheva Dance Company in Tel Aviv, Israel. Evocative imagery will be used to guide students to new ways of connecting to the body and the imagination. Participants will actively explore the ideas and instructions in their own way while discovering deeper physical awareness, flexibility, stamina, and the pleasure of moving in a welcoming, accepting atmosphere. Students are invited to wear comfortable clothes and to dance barefoot or in socks. No dance experience is needed.
