Bari Kim is a dance artist, improviser, and choreographer based in Jeju and Seoul, Korea. She has been actively teaching and performing—solo and in collaboration with dancers and musicians—across Korea, Europe, and Asia, including Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Portugal, Spain, Norway, Hungary, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, Ireland, and Canada.

Her artistic root and theme is Poong-gyung and GAMU: every being dances and sings by itself. She continues to learn dance and music from nature, Buddhism, Asian philosophy, and Korean traditional medical philosophy.

For 25 years, she has been experimenting with, learning from, and living through improvisation dance. Contact Improvisation is one of her passions. She has taught CI at workshops and festivals including the Seoul Improvisation Dance Festival, AIAE (Asia Improvisation Art Exchange), Towards (Thailand CI Conference), Samdal Contact Festival, and the Seoul CI Dance Festival.

She studied French Literature (B.A.) at Konkuk University and Choreography (M.F.A.) at the Korean National University of Arts. She is also a certified Somatic Movement Educator (SME) of Body-Mind Centering®.

She has studied with many inspiring teachers including Nancy Stark Smith, Mike Vargas, Kurt Koegel, Katie Duck, Thomas Kampe, Ted Stoffer, Grzegorz Żiółkowski, Sinja Hong, Jeongho Nam, Heekyung Blanz Kim, Eunsuk Jo, Joerg Hassmann, Stephanie Maher, Peter Pleyer, Eszter Gal, Jess Curtis, Keith Hennessy, Andrew Morrish, Rosalind Crisp, Daniel Lepkoff, Julyen Hamilton, Lisa Nelson, Nina Martin, Walburga Glatz, Maryska Bigos, Bob Lehnberg, Jens Johannsen, Friederike Troscher, and Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen.

???? ?? “??? ??? ?? ??????????”?

This 6-day intensive workshop invites us to experience the body as a continuously transforming, circulating, meeting, and communicating process—always connected to both inner and outer environments.

Listening, touch, and dance become the doorway into inter-being, the nature of the universe. Contact Improvisation provides a powerful tool and state for tuning into this joyful interconnectedness.

We will dive into active, physical, and subtle listening with curiosity. When we listen fully, every moment around and within us reveals its music, dance, and poetry. Through CI, we will explore what arises and is created as an interconnected, momentary body. We will listen with the whole body while inquiring into textures, attitudes, and the methodologies of in-betweenness, inter-being, and inter-body relations.

This workshop explores the dance that emerges between things in relationship—between events, landscapes, songs, and poems. It is a dance of Contact Improvisation where the body becomes the very space between, inviting participants into deep listening, attentive reading, and embodied inquiry.

The human body is a living ecology—dynamic, layered, and ever-changing. Through CI, participants will investigate the inter-relational dynamics between bodies, within bodies, and across space and time.

We will explore the body as a forest composed of cells, systems, and organs; the relationship between inner and outer spaces; silence and dynamism; fullness and emptiness; boundaries and boundarylessness; contemplative states and playful ones. Touch, voice, somatic approaches, Body-Mind Centering®, Poong-gyung, GAMU, improvisation, play, solo and group research, writing, and feedback will all be part of our shared work.
