La Stanza di Danza

La Stanza di Danza was founded in September 1998 in Piacenza with the clear initial intention of offering a “neutral space” for the study of Dance, where it would be possible to train, grow, and contribute energy, creativity, and freshness in a healthy and technically professional way.
Soon, the need to deepen skills, improve, and discover new realities collaboratively rather than competitively led to the establishment of an Amateur Sports Association affiliated with the Italian Dance Sport Federation, the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI), ADI, and CSEN.
Today, over 25 years after its opening, La Stanza di Danza ASD is a place attended by children, teenagers, and adults, professional dancers and actors, internationally renowned teachers, and anyone who wishes to study dance seriously yet serenely. It continues to collaborate with professional companies and artists, with the Municipality of Piacenza, and with organizations across the national territory.
We like to define La Stanza as a “proudly amateur” school because, in the purest associative spirit, it is a place where a strong passion is shared, with everyone respecting their own possibilities and those of others.

La Stanza di Danza and Gaga
The slogan that has always accompanied La Stanza in its growth is: “Dance. From another point of view.” In this spirit, after hosting, for the first time in Piacenza during the 2023/24 season, two certified Gaga Teachers, it was decided to organize a festival entirely dedicated to Gaga.

Why Gaga?
Because it is a brilliant movement language
Because it perfectly represents a “different point of view” on Dance
Because the fact that Gaga/people classes are open to the general public, not just students and dancers, makes Dance accessible, democratic, and shareable by everyone. Amateur. Proudly, Amateur.
