Due to the open-ended nature of the dance, each new dancer can add to this pot of creativity. This has led to various influences weaving in and out of the form. Some of those influences include but are not limited to Tango, Zen, Zouk, Contemporary, Ballet, Hip Hop, Qi Gong, Capoeira, Ballroom, Salsa and the list goes on. This is the beauty of CI: it can offer such an open fertile ground for exploration in expression and movement. Your voice in this dance is what will drive the creative freedom possible at Colours in Contact. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/hamilton/beginner-contact-improv-workshop-with-colours-in-contact/100001996420225637 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Workshops, Entertainment, dance, health-wellness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: 18+ - door_time: 2026-10-26T23:50:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Energy Awaken - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 22.63, max: 25, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Hamilton - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Energy Awaken - **lat**: 43.2584757 - **long**: -79.8428332 - **full address**: Energy Awaken, 529 Barton Street East, Hamilton, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Beginner Contact Improv Workshop with Colours in Contact - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/6c8126a345f07550999f96f898c30630cdc5b39649882352962496fa1ca39334-rimg-w1200-h800-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1786186027 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Beginner Contact Improv Workshop with Colours in Contact being held? - **A:** Beginner Contact Improv Workshop with Colours in Contact takes place on Mon, 26 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Mon, 26 Oct, 2026 at 10:00 pm at Energy Awaken, 529 Barton Street East, Hamilton, Canada. - **Q**: Is there an age restriction for Beginner Contact Improv Workshop with Colours in Contact? - **A:** Beginner Contact Improv Workshop with Colours in Contact is strictly for guests aged 18 and above.
