Gaga/ People Class

We welcome you to join Anoushka Jago for a short series of Gaga/ people classes

Gaga/people classes are open to people ages 16+, regardless of their background in dance or movement.

No previous dance experience is needed.

Gaga/people classes last for one hour and are taught by dancers who have worked closely with Ohad Naharin.

Teachers guide the participants using a series of evocative instructions that build one on top of the other.

Rather than copying a particular movement, each participant in the class actively explores these instructions, discovering how they can interpret the information and perform the task at hand.

Gaga/people classes offer a creative framework for participants to connect to their bodies and imaginations, increase their physical awareness, improve their flexibility and stamina, and experience the pleasure of movement in a welcoming, accepting atmosphere.

Anoushka was born in South East London. She trained on the Foundation Course at Northern School of Contemporary Dance before travelling to Israel to attend the International Dance Journey Programme with Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company and shortly afterwards to Italy to join Nuova Officina della Danza.  She returned to England in 2017 to become a member of Jasmin Vardimon 2 (JV2). Anoushka has worked with choreographers such as Akram Khan, Jasmin Vardimon, Botis Seva, Karole Armitage and Rami Be’er and most recently joined IL Dance (Sweden) for the 2023/23 tour of BACK2BACK. She is currently completing a BA (Hons) in Comparative Literature at King’s College London.

Anoushka has been a certified Gaga teacher since 2020 and has taught at Universities, companies and studios in the UK and internationally since then. This series of classes precede the early stages of R&D for her latest choreographic endeavours.
