Aged 28, Edgars Naglis was born in Jelgava and raised in Rezekne, Latvia, but started his dance training at West College Scotland in Glasgow. At NSCD, he has enjoyed working with The Hiccup Project, Gary Clarke, Phil Sanger, Joseph Mercier, Wayne Parsons, Kasia Witek, Anthony Missen and Eleanor Sikorski.
Embarking on a freelance career, straight into a network of professionals that he has amassed over the past 6 years, Edgar feels both worried and excited. By looking into movement and dance as more than just art and entertainment, he intends to develop a series of workshops, practices, lectures and eventually an institute of versatile approach towards movement. Through travelling, he wants to assemble a diverse collective of dancers, musicians, writers, teachers, painters and alike to build a healthier future within the industry.
