Contact Improv Dance

In this class:

We have fun

We sweat

We discover new parts of ourselves

We discover who we are in relation to space, movement and other bodies

Contact Improv is a form of dance that can be performed solo, with a partner, or with a group. It is a purely improvisational dance form meaning there are no "moves". When performed it often includes elements of contemporary dance, acrobatics, theatre, partner dance... to name a few.

In this class we use Contact Improv as a doorway into deep connection to source creativity. Everyone is capable of being a vessel for creativity to flow through.

We practice in a playful and focused environment. Through different exercises and games we work on:

• Mobility

• Reflexes

• Agility

• Functional strength

• Balance

• Improvisation

• Coordination

• Spatial and internal awareness

• Creating deep bonds with others

• + more

We create a safe space to push ourselves and each other into the places that are uncomfortable yet rewarding. This class is accessible to all levels of bodies and only requires a willingness to try one’s best. No experience needed!
