𝗗𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗺

Using Contact Improvisation (CI) as a foundation, we will create ways to improvise dancing in duo, trio, and ensemble. A detailed survey of CI essentials, with a focus on efficient, effortless use of technical skills, will develop a facility for, and availability to, changing physical states and levels of touch and weight. We will work with strategies for improvising or how we improvise the way we improvise. Come prepared for focused playfulness within committed practice.

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

“Contact Improvisation is an open-ended exploration of the kinaesthetic possibilities of bodies moving through contact. Sometimes wild and athletic, sometimes quiet and meditative, it is a form open to all bodies and enquiring minds.”

– 𝘙𝘢𝘺 𝘊𝘩𝘶𝘯𝘨, 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘯 2009

"a mode of movement which is relaxed, constantly aware and prepared, and onflowing. As a basic focus, the dancers remain in physical touch, mutually supportive and innovative, meditating upon the physical laws relating to their masses: gravity, momentum, inertia, and friction. They do not strive to achieve results, but rather, to meet the constantly changing physical reality with appropriate placement and energy."

– 𝘢 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘐𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘺 𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘗𝘢𝘹𝘵𝘰𝘯, 1979



This workshop is open to all levels of movement experience.
