Gaga Movement & Research Intensive 2026
3 Days – 3.5+ Hours Each Day
Led by Kari Vig Petersen, Smadar Goshen & Lee Brummer
The Intensive
This workshop invites you into a rich, multi-faceted movement experience combining daily Gaga/people classes with movement research sessions led by three teachers—each bringing their own unique background, expertise, and artistic voice.
Daily Gaga/people classes, taught by all three facilitators, offer diverse interpretations and approaches to the Gaga movement language. These classes focus on deepening sensory awareness, expanding physical possibilities, and connecting to pleasure, texture, and effort in movement. Each teacher’s way into Gaga will give you a new perspective and help you discover different pathways into your dancing body.
In addition to Gaga, the workshop includes movement research sessions drawing from our collective knowledge beyond the Gaga framework. This will incorporate practices such as Fascial Flow, GYROKINESIS®, Pilates, and choreographic exploration. Using improvisation, tasking, and guided inquiry, these sessions support creative discovery and embodied research.
There will also be space throughout the workshop for dialogue, reflection, and Q&A, supporting a more integrated and conscious learning process.
This workshop welcomes everyone aged 16 and over, No matter your background — dancer, performer, or complete beginner — this intensive is for anyone who wants to connect to their body, their curiosity, and their creative spark.
Bring your openness, your questions, and your love of movement.
