The Foundation of the Academy
In 1989, Maestro Bryan Poer left the Centro Studi Danza in Sarzana to return to Milan. Two of his students, dancers Giuseppe Gilardi and Lucia Boschi, decided to open their own school thanks to the allocation of a space within the Multi-purpose Centre located inside the former Fruit and Vegetable Market of Sarzana. Once the space was renovated, the two newly qualified teachers brought their project to life—what is now known as the prestigious dance school 4Movimento.

The 4Movimento dance school was inaugurated on 1st October 1990 by the then mayor, Lorenzo Forceri, and the Councillor for Culture, Prof. Mario Grassi, during an event attended by many dancers and featuring an exhibition by their friend, photographer Fabio Gianardi, dedicated to the artist Pina Bausch. Since then, the prestigious dance school has become a point of reference for the study and professional training in classical and contemporary dance throughout the province of La Spezia and beyond.
Shows and Performances
For years, the prestigious dance school in Sarzana has been organising shows and performances in the streets of the city and beyond—an opportunity to showcase the talent of its students, highlighted by original choreographies that bring to life truly evocative artistic creations.
Keeping Up with the Latest in Dance
4Movimento does not limit itself to the technical and educational aspects of dance, but also keeps an eye on current trends—both in classical and contemporary dance—by staying up to date through the contributions of dancers from many different backgrounds, as well as through courses and workshops.
