These dances, called “Movements,” are practiced as part of the spiritual teaching of G.I. Gurdjieff. Based on ritual dances from ancient traditions, they are a personal study for self-knowledge requiring many years of work to execute as intended. This is the first public presentation by the New York Gurdjieff Foundation in more than 50 years — a rare opportunity to witness the beauty of Gurdjieff’s exercises as a search for conscious movement.
