Compañía Nacional de Danza

On stage, we ate it all. After that, I started creating full sections of his ballets, and arrived to create original ballets for the Frankfurt Ballet as well as for other companies”. Godani owns an impetuous and seductive style apparently very free, but with a complex structure and absolutely personal. His spirit can be defined as that of a rebel with a cause: the result of his irredentism and ant conformism. “My ideal would be to act as the voice of new generations, to fight against mediocrity and conformism in this horrible world we are constructing all around”. The same idea that he’s got in the way he works when preparing a ballet, motivating the dancers to overcome their own limits, to listen to their bodies, to discover themselves and be able to move freely, further than the limits drawn by technique, with intensity but effortless. “I do not intend to play the artist, only. In my work I like to do it all: I design the sets and costumes, I also do the light design as well as the composing of the music in a recording studio. I’d love to have my own company, like an assault group, a command unit, more than only a dance ensemble. My dream is to count with a group of global artistic production”.
