    Korhan BasaranBio:
    Korhan Basaran is a NY based dancer & choreographer. For his latest creation, Korhan is welcoming various artists from diverse disciplines. This new company is named "Korhan Basaran and Artists" due its inter-disciplinary nature.

    His previous works have been performed at the Ailey Citigroup Theater, Baryshnikov Arts Center, The Cunningham Studio, The Beacon Theater, and Baruch Performing Arts Center among others. In Spring 2012 he was commissioned / premiered a new work by the Nimbus Dance Works.

    He manifests that "Art" is the only way to transform humanity into a better being than where it stands right now.

    Check out his NY Times Review for his gala performance at the Ailey Citigroup Theater on June 2011.

    Class description:
    The information which is distilled over the years I've received as a dancer and experienced as a performer form a unique vocabulary and sense of dance. The contemporary information includes being aware of all the previous information that is available to you, transforming it into your own / genuine way and being able to respond to the moment and use the energy that is already there. When building up my class, I challenge the instruments and push the limits even with the simplest exercise therefor the brain is always active, the dancer is always aware, connected and pushing as well.
