Greensboro Contact Jam

lp bring in guest teachers. What’s Contact Improv you say? Contact Improvisation (CI) is a dance technique in which points of physical contact provide the starting point for exploration through movement improvisation. Contact Improvisation is a form of dance improvisation and is one of the best-known and most characteristic forms of postmodern dance. A jam is a creative space for open improvisation, governed by mutual respect and awareness. A jam is an opportunity to play, to research, to experiment, to express, to work it out, to connect with others. Dancing alone, in duets, or in groups, we stretch our capacity to listen and lead as we follow the dance. Dates of Future Contact Jams (subject to some change and Whimsy!)

"Contact Improv is a movement form where dancers move to follow the play of touch. Gravity and the floor are constant partners. Human touch unites the forces that act upon the body with the sensations they produce within the body." -Steve Paxton
