Alessandro Marzotto Levy

short bio:
Born in Florence, Alessandro Marzotto Levy is a dancer, choreographer, curator, and teacher whose training and career have involved several European countries. He trained at the Rambert School in London and at IT Dansa in Spain, a company where he had the opportunity to perform repertoire by choreographers such as Jiří Kylián and Ohad Naharin.
In Groningen, he began his choreographic research under the umbrella of the production house Random Collision and worked as a dancer for choreographers such as Jasmine Ellis and Leo Lerus.
In 2011, he founded the dance company Impermanence Dance Theatre in Bristol (UK) and began teaching contemporary dance and choreographic composition in Italy, Germany, and England. His love for composition has led him to work in various contexts, from theatrical productions to site-specific projects, which he began directing in Berlin in 2017.
In 2021, Alessandro returned to live in Italy to continue dedicating himself to choreographic research and teaching. In 2022, he won the DNA Appunti Coreografici award with the work IRENE.
Starting in 2024, a new choreographic research project titled TONY began, which will premiere in 2026 as a co-production by Tir Danza and Sosta Palmizi.

class description:
In the last few years, I’ve developed a somatic approach for the beginning of the class in order to access the body with different tools to then allow each dancer to move to the best of their abilities with a heightened awareness of the body in space. After a softer beginning in which I lead the dancers through a gentle but active exploration using elements of breath, imagination and sensation based tasks, I definitely turn up the volume with more technical sequences using the space in it’s entirety pushing physicality on various levels allowing for technique and different movement qualities to be something to work on and explore with. I always try to stay responsive to the dancer’s needs and not to push when it’s not needed. My classes have always been a place where dancers have found refuge, softness, sweat and laughter. I have a real passion for teaching and I do it with a lot of care.
