Sense. Groove. Research. Discover. Let go. Move.
Join us for an unforgettable journey into Gaga, Ohad Naharin's movement language.
Dance, dine, and sleep in Orsolina28's lush surroundings, nestled in the hills and vineyards of the Piedmont region. Pairing Gaga and Gaga/metodika classes with the sights, smells, and tastes of Orsolina28, GagaEden will awaken all of your sensations. Your 3-night stay will connect you to your joy and passion to move, with a sense of plenty of time. As part of our "weekday" retreat, participants will enjoy the additional inspiration of Ohad Naharin's MOMO, performed by Batsheva Dance Company in the TorinoDanza Festival.
