Contact Improv Jam

Foundations of CI: An invitation to finding your own dance through Contact Improv.  w/ Funda Gul

Workshop 12:00-2:00 

• Come explore movement and the diversity of dance through the physical principles of touch, momentum, gravity, levity, shared weight, and following a shared point of contact with one or more dancers. 

 Jam 2:00-4:00

• Play with us as we practice the skills of falling, rolling, balance, counterbalance, lifting with minimal effort, making yourself light when being lifted, centering, breathing, and responding to your partners and your surroundings. The energy of the dance ranges from slow and subtle to highly physical.  
• We offer an open floor and an opportunity to journey into dance improvisation and conscious movement at your own pace.  
• Through our dance, we hope to expand the Contact Improv Community of dancers and gather for fun and creative connection!   

 All levels are Welcome! Come Learn, Refresh, or Practice!
