✨ Scott Wells Workshop – Contact Improvisation & Flying Moves ✨We are super excited to welcome Scott Wells to Oslo! 🎉
Known for incredible workshops and performances, the Scott Wells workshop is something everybody who loves dancing should join.
💫 About the Workshop
Aerial aspects of Contact Improvisation: flying, catching, landing, fluid acrobatics, deft maneuvers.
For the acrobatics, everyone will work at their own level and will learn best by building group safety and trust. Scott aims to connect the work to somatic knowledge.
We’ll do some of his favorite contact exercises and current curiosities — created or learned over decades of investigation and indulgence.
