Gaga is a dance movement language developed by Ohad Naharin (Mr. Gaga), the legendary director of the Batsheva Dance Company. His idea was to create a form of movement that utilizes the healing, dynamic power of movement. Ohad Naharin developed the technique after suffering a back injury himself - a technique explicitly not just for professionals. Gaga is fun and changes the way you look at your own body and is also a new meditative, improvised style of expression from Israel.

Saxony is the land of tinkerers and inventors, but did you know that many inventions and innovations made their way into the world from Chemnitz? Inventions are often the result of openness, curiosity and the coming together of certain people in the right place.

Life doesn't give Hector any gifts. The one from Leonardo Ferreira The hiker depicted in the film often loses control of his body. Driven by the wind, rain and storm, he fights against the elements and his own tent. He runs, he flees in search of freedom. La Fuite is a reinvention of the mythical circus figure of the clown. The piece presents him as an acrobat, dancer and mime. Leonardo Ferreira embodies a character battered by life who escapes from every situation in a surprising and virtuoso manner. His movements bordering on the absurd and his reaction to every obstacle transport the audience into a world full of humor and poetry. A small circus spectacle for the whole family.
Staging:Olivier Meyrou Light and sound: Jules Pierret Performer: Leonardo Ferreira
The author and director, Olivier Meyrou, comes from the world of cinema. He is known for his movie Au-delà de la haine, which won the Teddy Award for Best Film at the Berlin Film Festival in 2007. For La Fuite he refers to the silent films of Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin.

Despite the pandemic, a cultural event for the local hip-hop scene is finally taking place again, true to the motto „Hip-Hop - Don't Stop!‘.
With the traditional TANZ | MODERNE | TANZ - Battle, the festival, in cooperation with the TANZbüro Chemnitz, the Städtische Theatern , The Saxonz and Room - Local Hip-Hop Spot, offers a colorful mix of different dance styles such as hip hop, breaking, popping and house, which meet in an exciting battle atmosphere.
In this year marked by the pandemic, invited dancers from all over Germany compete in so-called „exhibition battles“, i.e. show battles without a jury with a focus on exchange and entertainment.
The event is an attempt to give dancers of hip-hop culture some space for creative development again after the long period of restrictions. Last but not least, the spectacle also serves to bring young and old a little closer to the various dance styles of the colorful world of hip-hop. So if you happen to be in the area, all you have to do is follow the music. It's worth it!
Room - Local Hip-Hop Spot was founded in 2020 by members of The Saxonz and the Chemnitz Chapter Raptor. It offers a space to learn dance styles such as breaking and stand-up styles such as hip-hop or dancehall in Chemnitz and to further develop the local scene. The idea of the dance studio, which emerged from the training room, has its origins in Saxony's closely networked crew landscape, with participants from all walks of life. In its work, the dance community includes all elements of the Chemnitz hip-hop scene as well as graffiti artists and DJs. Entrepreneurs, cultural workers, scene artists and public institutions are already cooperation partners of the local hip-hop spot.
Nam Tran Xuan is a versatile dancer and member of the Chapter Raptor group from Chemnitz. He started dancing 15 years ago and gradually established himself in the Saxon dance scene. His focus is now on hip-hop freestyle, but he was also able to learn some basics from other club and street dance styles in workshops with national and international dancers and incorporate them into his dancing. Among other things, his year abroad in Vancouver was particularly formative. He was also able to gain experience at various dance competitions and performances. Today, he is working on developing himself and his dance in various aspects with the help of friends and mentors in order to pass on his knowledge and promote the Chemnitz dance scene together with Chapter Raptor.
Now it's YOUR turn to be asked: You'd like to dance, but it's not as much fun alone, or you're too shy? A dance adventure for YOUNG and OLD with ZUMBA at the pavilion by the palace pond. The Colombian Alberto Perez, nicknamed „Beto,“ developed this special workout by combining aerobics with dance steps from Salsa, Calypso, Reggaeton, Samba, and Merengue in his home country in the mid-90s. Dance and sweat: FEEL THE BEAT to hot, southern rhythms.

For many years, the Sister Linga Group choreographies and the idea of creating a moving organism with multiple performers on stage that can assemble and dissolve into flexible and fluid formations, creating a collective consciousness. In co-production with the music duo „The Beast's Shadow“ (Mathias Delplanque and François Robin) merge the dancers into a performative body that completely surrenders to the hypnotic effect of the music, without the dancers abandoning their uniqueness and individuality. They create utopian moments of oneness, recognizing that diversity is what constitutes society's richness.
A world in search of collective harmony merges bodies, creating relationships so intense that emotions can be shared, understood, and felt by all. In this way, everyone finds their place for the maximum unfolding of their individuality in the simultaneity of everyone's movements.
After production Flow (SWISS DANCE AWARD 2019), inspired by the captivating and fluid spectacle of schools of fish and flocks of birds, emerges with COSMOS A new group choreographic adventure under the sign of the circle and the mandala as an image of a „whole unity“ that harmoniously encompasses differences and tensions. A place where „things exist in mutual dependence, and this interdependent existence of things occurs in the form of ordered chaos“ (Chögyam Trungpa). In movement, this striving for ordered chaos is expressed through the connection of trajectories and geometries, through ritual gestures and renewed traditions – through new scenic paths.
