About Contact Improvisation
Contact Improvisation is a form of dance art with multiple layers and dimensions, where listening and staying in tune with your own movement in relation to your environment; the space, and other people is key.
It is a dynamic movement form and dance practice where we move in and out of physical contact, following gravity and sensation. Together we engage in a fluid, evolving flow of movement characterized by unpredictability that sharpens the reflexes and opens up for an enigmatic interaction and (dis)orientation in and through us.
Contact Improvisation was developed in the context of experimental postmodern dance and performance practice in the 1970s in the USA but has since expanded beyond its original contexts and is now practiced by diverse communities of movers across many parts of the world.
About the Jam
This event is open for everyone with a curiosity to dance in and out of contact. Dancing, observing and being in space is all part of the jam. Take care of yourself and the space of improvisation; we emphasize that you are free to enter or leave a dance at any time. To keep the focus on dance in the space, talking and socialization takes place outside of the studio. If you want to pause your dance, please move to the side. We dance barefoot in comfy clothes.
