CONTACT IMPROVISATION

with Merav Israel

Contact Improvisation is a movement form which explores the

dance that can evolve between two or more bodies moving

together in physical contact. This course will introduce the

main elements of Contact Improvisation such as giving and

receiving weight, and falling and lifting to create dance that

can be soft and meditative or athletic and acrobatic. You will

learn to be aware, playful, responsive, sensitive, acrobatic,

poetic, meditative and to play with unpredictable outcomes

– all this makes it much more than a dance form.

This class is open to anyone who is interested in movement

exploration and learning about this technique which informed

all post modern dance and theatre forms of today.

You will need comfy clothes and bare feet.

explorations in space -body -mind

with Merav Israel

A great opportunity to hone your movement skills with exploration

of body-movement in space and time and improvised compositions.

This course is for dancers, actors, physical performers and anyone with

dance practice who is interested in developing ways to observe dance

and choice, body-mind skills and responses to the endless possibilities

arising in the moment. This practice is connected to life as much as to

art and dance. An open mind and playfulness is what you need to bring

with you to this class! At the end of term we will have an informal

studio sharing of our processes in a short improvisation score.

You will need comfy clothes and bare feet.
