Take Off Festival 2026 Professional Class

gergő d. farkas
Thursday 19 February, 11am - 12.30pm
In this open-level guided dance and movement workshop, titled organ-ing, we will weave together fantasy with pre-existing somatic knowledge and the felt sense of our anatomy. We may explore the human body as an ever-changing place of mystery and escape, and challenge it as a static point of reference. This workshop is dedicated to those of you who want to feel a little more and love a little harder.

Ekin Tunçeli
Friday 20 February, 11am - 12.30pm
Multidisciplinary artist and choreographer Ekin Tunçeli leads a class focusing on physical material and the practice from her work heartquake. Suitable for professional artists and advanced students.

gergő d. farkas is a gathering of cells with a passion for choreography, dance, organisation, romance and mischief. Being lost in Stockholm, Budapest, Vienna or somewhere in between, they dream of belonging to sensual spaces where not only humans are invited to dance. Their choreographic work has been presented in venues and festivals such as Zürcher Theater Spektakel, Trafó House of Contemporary Dance, Dansehallerne, Open House Festival, MTD Legacy Festival, Dansmakers Amsterdam and MDT Moderna Dansteatern amongst others.

Ekin Tunçeli is a multidisciplinary artist and choreographer who translates embodied experience into poetic, multilayered forms.
