Learn the basics of contact improvisation (CI)–how to give and receive weight safely, how to move in different levels of space with other bodies, and how to have a fun and spontaneous non-verbal connection. CI is playing with elements of physics, and mind/body choice-making within every moment of dancing. As with all partner dance forms, one can learn a huge amount about oneself when learning and practicing CI. This is especially true since this partner dance technique requires every person to be both a leader, and a follower at any given moment. Skills learned in this workshop can be practiced outside of this experience in improv jams.
For beginner levels of experience.
