Who is Martha Graham ?
Recognized as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century, Martha Graham created a movement language based upon the expressive capacity of the human body.
The Graham technique has been taught worldwide. Today, it continues to serve as a rich and powerful training and to influence contemporary dance.
"You are unique and if this is not fulfilled, then something has been lost"

What is #GrahamForEurope?
#GrahamForEurope is a European platform and organization dedicated to dancers and others passionate about the Martha Graham technique (™) . It aims to connect this community and foster collaboration within European countries and with the Martha Graham Center in New York.
