Emanuel Gat was born in Israel in 1969. His first encounter with dance was at the age of 23 during a workshop led by Israeli choreographer Nir Ben Gal. Few months later he joined the Liat Dror Nir Ben Gal Company with whom he toured internationally. He started working as an independent choreographer in 1994.  

Emanuel Gat is regularly invited by companies and structures for which he creates or transmits pieces. He worked for the first time with Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris in 2009, for which he created the piece Hark!. In France, he also choreographed pieces for Ballet du Rhin (Observation Action in 2010), the Ballet National de Marseille (Organizing Demons in 2012), the Ballet de Lorraine (Transposition #1 and Transposition #2 in 2013) and the Opéra de Lyon (Sunshine in 2014).
