WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
These day-long workshops are intentionally not arranged around a particular topic or skill in CI. Rather we will allow the frame of learning to be more open.
We will get moving and continue moving. We will get curious, stay curious, and hold any understandings with lightness. We will tune into sensation, to gravity and other natural forces, to connection with our dance partner/s. We will take time, we will be embodied. Themes will be emergent on the day. We will absolutely dance Contact Improvisation.
These workshops will enhance body awareness and integration. We will create a sense of playful focus and exploration, where improvisation allows a deepening of concepts and skills.
These workshops are open to all levels of experience.
Strict Participant limits apply.
Contact Improvisation is a highly enjoyable dance form that involves the dynamic play of natural forces, such as gravity and momentum, with the communicative ability of touch and contact.
