This is a playfulness-forward opportunity for all of the young at heart to discover what comes into being when vocal and verbal channels of expression are available alongside movement and contact. In other words, we’re playing with the territory where Action Theater and Contact Improvisation meet! This is designed more for people who have some experience with Contact Improvisation as we will not be teaching principles of CI. That said, beginners are welcome to come and explore and there is no requirement to do contact. You can lean more towards the AT side of improvisation or more towards CI. Totally up to you. We recommend that if you want more guidance on CI you check out other venues for beginner classes. Our agreements for this space:
* To respect peoples boundaries, verbal and non-verbal
* This is a non-sexual space
* To take care of yourself
* You can say no or end a dance at any time, for any or no reason
Here’s how we’ll break down the time:
6:15 Doors open, feel free to warm up and stretch
6:30-7:45pm Class: Action Theater exercises & games (connecting movement, vocalizing, and words)
7:45-9:30pm Open contact improv/Action Theater jam inviting movement, vocalizing, and words
$25 for class & jam, $15 for only class or only jam
*There is one volunteer spot at each Happensdance. Volunteers will work the door in exchange for free participation. If you'd like to be a volunteer, please contact us at [email protected]
We will be doing Happensdance on 2nd and 4th Tuesdays.
