Gaga.Dancers

Gaga.Dancers

Gaga is a movement language developed by Ohad Naharin in Israel to help dancers and non-dancers alike reconnect to the way they move. Teachers guide the participants using a series of evocative instructions that build one on top of the other. Rather than copying a particular movement, each participant in the class actively explores these instructions, discovering how he or she can interpret the information and perform the task at hand. 

Gaga.Dancers is aimed towards experienced to professional dancers. Beginner or non-dancers should try Gaga.People, also offered at the Mark Morris Dance Center on Monday and Thursday mornings and Wednesday evenings.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Late entry is not permitted in Gaga classes. The first few minutes of Gaga is very important due to the physical and mental awareness it creates for the class environment. Please plan accordingly.

Fridays 6:30 - 7:45pm

Instructors: Gaga Faculty
