Yesterday began with an invigorating workshop led by UNARTE from Spain, whose dynamic presence and precise movements set the tone for the day. In the intimate studio setting, they guided us through exercises that revealed their refined technique and expressive physical language—an early glimpse into the chemistry and discipline that fuels their stage work.
By evening, I found myself at Rockefeller Park for the Battery Dance Festival, ready to see UNARTE in their world premiere of Verso Roto. Against the stunning backdrop of the Hudson at sunset, their performance unfolded with an intensity amplified by the crisp sound system and the natural ambience of the waterfront. The fading light, shifting from golden warmth to deep twilight, seemed to frame every gesture with cinematic perfection, drawing the audience deeper into their narrative.
The night’s program was rich with variety. Theater Plauen – Zwickau Ballet Ensemble from South Korea/Germany brought a measured elegance in Eden, their timing and presence quietly captivating. Platforma 13 – Balkan Ballerinas from Romania delivered an unapologetically political performance—layered, urgent, and impossible to ignore. Together, the evening’s works formed a tapestry of movement that balanced intimacy with scale, beauty with message.
It was a rare gift to witness UNARTE’s artistry evolve from the rehearsal floor to the open-air stage, a reminder of how context—time of day, setting, and audience—can transform the experience of dance entirely.
Nice maintained studio. All conditions are good. And reasonable price. It's one of my favorite studio to rent. conditions are much better than ripley. em.. but of course, ripley has better location
Be aware it is at the top of a 5 floor walk up. Studios are really nice, Marley floor and have sound systems for use. Wall and center barres available.
Went for a free fencing class from the New York Fencing Club. Nice space. Would benefit from bigger and better lockers. Got a bit stuffy with the fencing stuff too. Couldn't really open the windows due to winter.
We experienced their extravagant and Amazing gala performance one year ago and were astonished by the work that they do. Truly amazing organization!!!
