Gaga Class:

The language of Gaga cultivated by Ohad Naharin director of Batsheva Dance Company, came from the belief in the ‘healing, dynamic, and ever-changing power of movement,’.  Gaga help’s participants connect to their bodies and to various physical sensations. The improvisational nature of the class is guided by the teacher, who also participates, through a series of image-driven prompts.  Participants are encouraged to explore their range between weakness and strength, awaken numb areas in the body and become aware of their habits. The classes offer a workout that investigates form, speed, and effort while enhancing our flexibility, agility, and coordination.  In addition to delving into qualities such as texture, delicacy, and exaggeration, culminating in a multisensory and physically challenging experience. 
Without mirrors or spectators, we will use this hour and fifteen minute opportunity to explore the principles of gaga, connecting to our imaginations and the pleasure of moving.
