WE WELCOME YOU TO JOIN US! Please come dance! A warm-up contact improv class will precede an ecstatic dance set. Feel free to come for either or both!
The class:
Basic foundational improv principles will be shared in a class format, exploring the principles somatically. All levels of experience are welcome including very beginners. Basics will be covered at the beginning of the class- including physical and emotional safety. Contact Improv can involve contact with another, with the floor or with self. No need to dance with someone if you don't want to!
