La prestigiosa scuola di danza per gli appassionati di sarzana

Nel 1989 il M. Bryan Poer lascia il Centro Studi Danza di Sarzana per tornare a Milano; due dei suoi allievi, i ballerini Giuseppe Gilardi e Lucia Boschi, decidono di aprire la loro scuola grazie alla cessione di uno spazio del Centro Polivalente interno all'ex Mercato Ortofrutticolo di Sarzana. Una volta restaurato l'ambiente, i due neo insegnanti danno vita al loro progetto, quella che oggi è conosciuta come la prestigiosa scuola di danza 4Movimento. La scuola di danza 4Movimento viene inaugurata il 1 ottobre 1990 dall'allora sindaco Lorenzo Forceri e dall'Assessore alla Cultura Prof. Mario Grassi, in un'evento partecipato da molti ballerini con una mostra dell'amico fotografo Fabio Gianardi, dedicata all'artista Pina Baush. Da allora la prestigiosa scuola di danza è divenuta un punto di riferimento per lo studio e la preparazione professionale alla danza classica e contemporanea in tutta la provincia di La Spezia e non solo.

Nel corso degli anni sono molti i giovani coinvolti nelle numerose attività organizzate:

Stage con insegnanti internazionali
Spettacoli (50 all'attivo)
Concorsi
Rassegne
Viaggi guidati alla fruizione di importanti spettacoli in grandi teatri italiani
Proiezioni di filmati sulla danza

In tal modo si è creato un terreno fertile per tutti coloro desiderosi di intraprendere lo studio di quest'arte. Sono molti i giovani che, dopo aver iniziato il loro percorso alla scuola di Sarzana, hanno potuto completare la propria formazione in scuole professionali come:

Kholn Academy (Colonia)
Liceo Coreutico di Torino
Scuola di Ballo del Teatro alla Scala (Milano)
École Supérièure Nationale de Marseille (Marsiglia)
École Supérièure de Danse de Rosella Higthower (Cannes)
Rudra Bejart Lausanne (Losanna)
Codarts (Rotterdam)
John Cranko Shule (Stoccarda)
Accademia Nazionale di Danza (Roma)

The foundation of the Academy

In 1989, Mr. Bryan Poer left the Dance Study Centre in Sarzana to return to Milan; two of his students, the dancers Giuseppe Gilardi and Lucia Boschi, decided to open their own school thanks to the assignment of a space within the Multipurpose Centre inside the former Fruit and Vegetable Market of Sarzana. Once the environment was restored, the two new teachers brought their project to life, which is now known as the prestigious 4Movimento dance school. The 4Movimento dance school was inaugurated on 1st October 1990, by the then-mayor Lorenzo Forceri and the Culture Councillor Professor Mario Grassi, at an event attended by many dancers with an exhibition by the friend photographer Fabio Gianardi, dedicated to the artist Pina Baush. Since then, the prestigious dance school has become a reference point for the study and professional preparation of classical and contemporary dance in the province of La Spezia and beyond.

Over the years, many young people have been involved in the numerous activities organised:

Workshops with international teachers
Performances (50 in total)
Competitions
Exhibitions
Guided trips to enjoy important performances in major Italian theatres
Screenings of dance films

In this way, a fertile ground has been created for all those eager to undertake the study of this art. Many young people who, after starting their journey at the Sarzana school, have been able to complete their training in professional schools such as:

Kholn Academy (Cologne)
Liceo Coreutico di Torino
Ballet School of Teatro alla Scala (Milan)
École Supérièure Nationale de Marseille (Marseille)
École Supérièure de Danse de Rosella Hightower (Cannes)
Rudra Bejart Lausanne (Lausanne)
Codarts (Rotterdam)
John Cranko School (Stuttgart)
Accademia Nazionale di Danza (Rome)

Keeping up with dance news

4Movimento does not limit itself to the technical and didactic aspect of dance but also looks at current trends, both in classical and contemporary dance, updating itself thanks to the contribution of dancers from many other backgrounds, workshops, and stage performances.
