Valéria Dienes (1879-1978) dancer, teacher, and choreographer, considered the most important exponent of the Hungarian tradition in movement art.
In 1915 she founded a school, which she called "Orkesztika” (”Orchestrics”), incorporating her own ideas of motion. Evaluating the interrelationships of dynamics, kinetics, mimetics, and rhythmics, she created her own system to teach eurythmics and provide students with an understanding of the strength, space, expression and time needed to create dance.
