Contact Impro Easter Weekend & Work Exchange
This dance-gathering is based on a work-exchange format. By contributing 2x3 hours of simple, physical work, we manage to keep the costs accessible and the quality high!
We dance.
We work and move in nature.
We share vegetarian meals.
We rest and reconnect.
We celebrate Easter and the coming of spring with a huge bonfire!
We dance.
The Core of the This Easter Weekend is focussed around Contact Improvisation. Throughout the day and in the evenings a beautiful studio is inviting us to dance and practice together deep listening, playful collisions and meditation/yoga or bodywork.
We will offer some warm-ups, different scores and long JAMs.
The Sunday JAM is also open for guests!
(book your ticket!)
If you or your partner are not so much into dancing CI, there will be plenty of space and time to just hang out, read, paint or go for long walks into the nature…
The main task for the work exchange is to gather, prepare and stack fire-wood from the forest or helping in the kitchen. Think of Work as movement, then Movement becomes a dance.
Expect a held, grounded atmosphere. All levels are welcome!
We are really looking forward to create this
special Contact-Easter-Weekend-Exchange together!
Liesbeth, Lemmer, Catherine & Lionel
