JAMAZO ITALIA is an event dedicated to the practice and celebration of Contact Improvisation in the wider sense. In this event we gather for 4 days of life and dance.
The heart of the event is a daily 6 hour jam that we start and end together. During the day, before the jam, we have the opportunity to enjoy Genova natural surroundings, go to the beach, walk in the mountains and rest in the park and after the jam there is the possibility of gathering for dinner to enjoy Ligurian food.
We see JAMAZO as a journey that we do all together so we invite those who wish to commit to the full 4 day journey with us.
We wish the event to be inviting for everyone with any level of experience in Contact Improvisation.
We support different ways of experiencing and enjoying the long jam, such as: dancing, watching, resting, writing, drawing, reading, sleeping and more.
WE ARE EXCITED TO INVITE YOU TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH US IN A BEAUTIFUL ENVIRONMENT BETWEEN SEA AND MOUNTAINS IN GENOVA.
Jamazo was initiated by Autarco Arfini in Rosario, Argentina. We found that it is touching the essence of Contact Improvisation as we perceive it. In 2022 we organised the first Jamazo Italia in Genova with the wish to share this experience with others, also here.

WHERE
Palestrina Parchi di Nervi - Villa Grimaldi, Genova, Italy
Please notice that the dance space is located inside a public park - so people might be looking in through the windows or even occasionally entering to watch the dance (we put outside an explanation of what we do, with a request for awareness).
From our last year's experience, this was always done with respect and did not create interference, on the contrary - many people became curious about this form of dancing together.
