25 October-1 November
Dialects of Momentum: Improvising Contact
Using Contact Improvisation as a foundation, we will create ways to improvise
dancing in duo, trio, and ensemble. A detailed survey of CI essentials, with a
focus on efficient, effortless use of technical skills, will develop a facility
for, and availability to, changing physical states and levels of touch and
weight. We will work with strategies for improvising improvising or, expanding
our range of choices—how we improvise the way we improvise, as well as ways of
embodying our imagination in movement. Come prepared for focused playfulness
within committed practice.
