Contact improvisation

Contact improvisation is a dance form that involves moving with partners through a point of contact. The dance can be soft and sensory or dynamic and flowing into lifts and jumps. The key concept requires co-operation and sensitivity to your partner to enable the dance to unfold. We can expect to be in physical contact at any moment whilst at the same time keeping an awareness of one´s own direction in improvising. The elements include Yoga, Gymnastics, Martial arts principles and Dance.

The work is useful for those who enjoy dancing as well as those looking to improve health and wellbeing. We will strengthen our abilities to create dances that are imaginative and playful.
