Whoever turns needs a center. Everything else is movement.

With Ensemble Resonanz, hip-hop dance meets Bach, the master of structure. Yaman Okur explores gravity through spins and glides – each gesture held in tension, each turn on the edge of falling. Counterpoint holds the line, while the body shifts it through space.

»If you believe in what you show, they will believe in what they see.«

Yaman Okur is a French-Turkish dancer and choreographer who emerged from the breakdance scene and gained international recognition as a world champion with the crew Wanted Posse.

As an artist, he combines precise physical control and strong rhythmic presence with choreographic work for international productions – including collaborations with Madonna, Cirque du Soleil and numerous projects between pop, dance and performance.
