Contact Improvisation is a dance of partnering and improvising using touch, physical/energetic connection, weight, space and breath. It can go from quietly meditative to the exuberantly acrobatic, from using little or light touch to sending weight through a partner’s body to fly.

Course 1 – Body Paths
Is an exploration of embodied Anatomy using images and sensation to invite us into new places and spaces within our contact dance. Each week we will explore a part of the body, discovering new pathways and body wisdom.

Will Include:

  • Exploration of our connection to the center.
  • Learning to use the breath as our guide and movement inspiration.
  • Taking time to inhabit our early developmental patterns to create an effortlessness in our moving.
  • Learning to play with the logic of momentum – lifts, suspension, balances, surrender and falling.

OUR TEACHING

Each class will follow a pattern of warm up and arriving, followed by technical and developmental movement exercises and then onto a more open improvisation space to play with what we have learned.

Details

We look forward to dancing with you!
