Gaga/people Class with Renowned Israeli Choreographer Ohad Naharin

Before there was Lady Gaga, there was Gaga, a movement exercise developed by choreographer Ohad Naharin. It is used in daily training sessions by the dancers of Israel's Batsheva Dance Company, and taught in dance academies around the world.

Naharin also developed a version of his Gaga classes for people with no dance background. Gaga/people offers a one-hour long movement workout done in comfortable clothes. Gaga allows the user to discover agility, flexibility, strength, speed, efficiency, stamina, and isolation and articulation of the joints. Immediately after the 3:00 pm class, at 4:00 pm, Naharin will hold an open discussion about the Gaga method.
