"Dans komt uit je maag, je hart, je brein. Dans komt uit je lichaam, in zijn geheel. Omdat het een complete combinatie is: alle organen zijn aan elkaar verbonden, van het brein tot het hart. Je kunt niet dansen met maar één deel van je lichaam, je danst met je volledige lichaam.''
Gai Behar
As a party producer, Gai Behar was taking a big part of Tel Aviv nightlife scene as well as a curator of multidisciplinary art events from 1999 till 2005. Gai joined Sharon in co-creating Bertolina in 2005 and has collaborated on the creation of Sharon Eyal ever since.
Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar form an innovative duo in the contemporary danceworld. In 2013 the duo formed their dance company L-E-V.
