Join us for a 3 day immersion in Jamming Contact Improvisation Dance. For Jam into the Fall 2024, we are envisioning a relaxed, playful, participatory & co-created space. Jamming contact improvisation in extended sessions is a gateway to a deep embodiment of the form in its physical, social, emotional, spiritual, non-linear & timeless ways. It is a time to practice what we know and what we have yet to discover.
- There will be some facilitation, and lots of jam time.
- We will be pulling inspirations from different scores & jam formats to take us into the dance.
- Silent space in Focus jams will be maintained in a way to enrich the soil of our communal experience.
-There will be a musical jam on Saturday evening.
