In these lessons we will go through the fundamental principles in Contact Improvisation: sharing weight, balance, off-balance, trusting the floor, our partner and ourselves, momentum, manipulation, rolling point of contact, flying, lifting and improvisation during a dance. We will explore as well the psychological and philosophical aspects of this wonderful form of dancing.
The lessons are intended for people who wish to explore and learn more of this wonderful way of dancing. No prior dancing experience is needed, if you have dancing experience it will make your progression faster.

The classes take place on Mondays – 19:00-21:00 and starts from 18th January till end of June.

Contact improvisation is a dance technique that was introduced in the early seventies by Steve Paxton. Its main issue is the physicality of two or more dancers that move together in contact. It can be a fast and acrobatic dance, or a gentle, quiet and attentive dance. The dance changes all the time and allows the dancers to explore themselves, their body language and the way they are interacting with other people.
