- **Event Name**: Contact improvisation fundamentals: communications & listening though touch
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Contact Improvisation (CI) is an open, welcoming movement practice where we come together to explore how our bodies communicate through touch, shared weight, and physical awareness. It began in the United States in 1972, developed by dancer and choreographer Steve Paxton, and draws inspiration from modern dance, aikido, and somatic practices.

At its core, CI is about listening — to gravity, momentum, and each other. We follow what happens in real time: leaning, lifting, rolling, falling, and finding balance together. There’s structure, but no fixed choreography. It’s playful, physical, and deeply responsive.

You don’t need to be a professional dancer to take part. CI welcomes experienced movers and complete beginners alike. If you’re curious, willing to stay present, and open to exploration, you’re in the right place.

Programme: 
Workshop 1: Exploring contact (by Patryk Kłos)

How to communicate &amp; listen through touch? We will explore the physical contact as a communication tool and through simple tasks develop an understanding of its possibilities and limitations.

Workshop 2: Three’s company: you, me, and the music (by Agnieszka Pietruczuk)

In this workshop, we treat music as a third dance partner that supports, inspires, and gently challenges our movement. We’ll explore easy, playful ways to listen to music together and let it enrich both the dance and the connection with our partner. The focus is on curiosity and enjoyment, using music to spark more creative, alive, and connected dances.
