On New Year’s Day 2023 we will move together! And have snacks!
Contact Improvisation will be very much part of the space.
But you’re also welcome to join if you prefer to move solo.
Witnessing others in the contact dance is also welcome and encouraged.
This is a space to move however you feel.
The vision of Portal Dance is to expand the space beyond the realms of a typical CI jam.
There will be a wider musical journey than your average jam.
We will start of slow and subtle, but the beats will get stronger, deeper and darker as the wave continues…
For an example of a possible musical flow: dance playlist
We will have plenty of tea, plus optional snacks to buy including Roar Energy balls, New Year Green Juice and an evening stew dinner for those who want it.
We are also going to set up an arts space for those inspired creatively to paint/draw something or add to the collective jam painting. Take inspiration from the dancers and see what happens….
There may be other surprises such as guest musicians and maybe your favourite dancer will show up.
