This beginner-friendly 3-hour workshop is designed for dancers, bodyworkers, and movement lovers ready to explore the art of CI through touch, weight, and shared momentum. You’ll learn foundational CI principles—like yielding to gravity, moving from your centre, and listening with your spine—while discovering how to attune to another in motion.
Expect a playful mix of floorwork, partner exercises, and improvisational scores in a safe, consent-aware space. Perfect for those who’ve seen CI on the dance floor and thought: “That looks incredible—but how do I start?”
No experience needed. Just a willing body, a curious heart, and clothes you can roll around in!! :)
What You’ll Explore:
Moving from your core: the centre point of connection in CI
Yielding, spiraling, rolling: the fundamentals of floorwork
Learning the language of weight: how to give, receive, and meet
Cultivating spinal fluidity and finding freedom through form
Practicing safe, consensual touch and middle-body meeting points
Discovering the difference between lifting someone up—and being a safe place to land
Complete our journey with an improvised jam of free flow movement.
Open to all bodies. No experience necessary. Come solo or bring a friend.
