Jorge Gayon, PhD, is a movement-actor, choreographer/stage director, choreologist, and ethnoscenologist who specializes in expressive movement. He is the author of the Laban-Decroux project, in which Laban’s movement analysis tools are applied to the study of Etienne Decroux’s actor training method.

A member of the ICKL since 1995, he has collaborated with the Laboratory for Research on Performing Arts (CNRS-France) and CENIDI-Danza “José Limón” (INBA-Mexico) and is a founding member of the Centro Mexicano de Estudios Coreológicos, A.C.
