In a two-day intensive workshop, participants are introduced to the Eshkol-Wachman Movement Notation (EWMN). Drawing on Noa Eshkol’s repertoire, the workshop teaches fundamental concepts of the notation and allows participants to explore them through hands-on practice: Participants read, write, perform, and compose movement, engaging with the methods and performative challenges of this unique practice.

Biography

The Noa Eshkol Chamber Dance Group was founded in 1954 by Noa Eshkol to perform her choreographies based on the Eshkol-Wachman Movement Notation. Following Eshkol’s death in 2007, the company continues to present her work with both long-standing and new members. Their performances focus exclusively on the movement of the human body: without sets, costumes, or music, they create highly complex, precisely composed dance works that are still regarded today as a unique contribution to the history of dance.
