Class Description:
Fusing elements of release technique, ballet, street dance, martial arts, and Japanese dance, Naganuma's students enjoy full-bodied movement that is at once aggressive, sensuous, virtuostic, and spirited. Approaching movement from a skeletal level, students are challenged to move with less tension and greater efficiency without losing the dynamic bite that has become her trademark. Naganuma encourages a warm, friendly classroom community, where students feel comfortable taking risks and pushing themselves to their own outer limits. Her classroom is a place where solid technique and artistic invention exist in active interplay

About Naganuma Dance

2009-08-15T15:00:00.000-07:00

Naganuma Dance is a contemporary dance company based in New York City. Drawing from a wide range of forms, the movement vocabulary employed reflects elements of modern dance, hip-hop, martial arts, ballet, and traditional Japanese dance. Known to bring high velocity, ferocious movement, innovative partnering, and evocative visual imagery to the stage, this dynamic ensemble is comprised of performers from Japan, Kenya, Germany, Saudi Arabia, and Italy. At times, the company employs motion as a medium for reflection/commentary on social realities. Often, however, movement is approached as part of a greater aesthetic drive, at one with the meaning. Audiences are transported into an alternate environment, one where imaginative props, lighting, and sound design create new spaces for invention and play.

Naganuma Dance seeks to explore that place where the lines between the real and the illusory, conscious and unconscious, human and otherworldly blur, intersect, and in fleeting pockets of time, disappear.

The rich and varied life/movement perspectives of the multi-ethnic, global performers are the life force of the company. Through performance, teaching, and interdisciplinary collaboration, members of Naganuma Dance hope to share the artistic process cross-culturally and through lines of class and gender.
