About us

Granhøj Dans is an internationally acknowledged dance company that has it's base in Denmark. The productions of Granhøj Dans are created by the company's artistic director and choreographer Palle Granhøj, in close co-operation with the dancers.

The starting point of every production is the Obstruction Technique developed by Palle Granhøj, and which has made possible the creation of about 25 original works the last 25 years. Based on the above named working method, the choreographer reshapes the movements of the performers by means of hindering actions, revealing inner layers of their personality in the process, thus turning the spotlight on human condition. Rather than showing dancers and choreographies on stage, Palle Granhøj wants to present men and women as they are: genuine, alive - and complex.
