Contact Improvisation Gathering at the Villa Wigman in Dresden
22. - 28. September
Join us for a vibrant week full of dance, discovery, and community in the beautiful and historic Villa Wigman — a unique space for artistic exchange in the heart of Dresden.
Each day offers a rich and varied program: workshops, mini-classes, and warm-ups guided by an experienced team of teachers. The daily jams create space for exploration, integration, learning, listening, resting, and witnessing — inviting each body to follow its own rhythm.
This gathering is for anyone who wants to commit to a full week of shared practice and deepening. It’s about presence, curiosity, and allowing the full spectrum of Contact Improvisation to unfold.
