There is a big dance scene in Israel so I was really excited to try to discover it. I was able to take a Gaga dance class before I saw Bat sheva Dance Compnay. The class was unlike anything i've done before it's kind of like improvisation but not. The whole class is taught in Hebrew which i know none of the teacher only said a few things in English just so i could understand something. we had to move our bodies with our skin, then with our flesh, then with our bones it was really crazy. The whole point is to move the entire time and never stop moving. After thirty mins I was sweating like i took a 2 hour ballet class. I'm so glad I was able to take the class I get one more class so hopefully I'll take another one in the morning.
Bat sheva dance company, I was so excited to see them.They are a company that I have wanted to see for a long time and now I get to see them in Israel premiering a new work by Sharon Eyrl. The show didn't start until 9pm that's why I was able to take class before, I"ve never been to a show that started that late I thought for the longest time that i had the wrong time. The theatre was in the same place I took class and really pretty small. It reminded me of a community theatre from back home, i didn't expect to see this amazing dance company in such a small theatre. But the company completely blew me away as I expected. The piece, Bill, was an hour long and totally captivating. I was glad that i took gaga class before I saw the show because it allowed me to understand the company and how they worked. After seeing them I realized that there are so many endless possibilities with the human body and to work and move body should never be limited. they are going to be at the joyce for two weeks in sep so i have to make sure i see them in the states as well.
