🌀 9AM – 12PM | 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵: 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗜 𝗯𝘆 𝗜𝗰𝗲 (Workshop Session #1)
A welcoming entry point into the world of Contact Improvisation. Perfect for beginners or anyone curious to try CI. We’ll begin with a short yoga warm-up before exploring the fundamentals of CI through simple drills, touch, and weight-sharing exercises. Come with an open mind and discover how movement, connection, and play can unfold through contact.
🌀 2 – 5PM | 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗧𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀: 𝗖𝗜 & 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗖𝗜 𝗯𝘆 𝗦𝘇𝗲-𝗪𝗲𝗶 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗢𝗻𝗴 (Workshop Session #2)
How do we practice CI as a performative act? This workshop explores the dance of bone, flesh, skin, and the field of trust that arises between movers and audience. Together, we inquire into the relationality of improvisation—being danced by space, being witnessed, and engaging spectators not as passive observers but as active participants. Join us in opening questions about the relevance of CI in the context of performance.
🤝5 – 7PM | 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗖𝗜 𝗝𝗮𝗺 (𝗔)
An open, improvisational dance space where anyone can join to move, play, and explore Contact Improvisation together. It’s informal, free-flowing, and all about shared practice and connection.
🔍8 – 10PM | 𝗖𝗜 𝗟𝗮𝗯 𝗯𝘆 𝗦𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝗦𝗗) & 𝗢𝗻𝗴
This is a space to dive deeper into the form — to play with ideas, test movement questions, and explore specific principles together. Participants shape the session, while facilitators guide rather than teach — a shared playground for movement research.

How can blindness and physical limitation shape the space of dance? This workshop explores the aesthetics of diversity through CI, where dance can be seen, heard, expressed, and shared across multiple dimensions of perception. Guided by the experience of a blind dancer sharing their techniques, participants are invited to experiment with new ways of sensing, moving, and relating. Together, we discover how difference can open a richer field of trust, sensitivity, and imagination.
🌀2 – 5PM | Workshop Session #4 (by Jiexiao) TBC

An open, improvisational dance space where anyone can join to move, play, and explore Contact Improvisation together. It’s informal, free-flowing, and all about shared practice and connection.
🌟8 – 9PM | 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲
One hour of live, improvised sharing where movers explore contact and improvisation in front of an audience. It’s about being witnessed, engaging spectators as active participants, and creating a shared space. The performance explores the relationality of improvisation—how movement is shaped by space, presence, and the interaction between movers and audience.
