SOME MORE DETAILS ABOUT
What is Contact Improvisation?
Contact Improvisation is an improvised dance form based on the communication between two moving bodies that are in physical contact and their combined relationship to the physical laws that govern their motion—gravity, momentum, inertia. The body, in order to open to these sensations, learns to release excess muscular tension and abandon a certain quality of willfulness to experience the natural flow of movement. Practice includes rolling, falling, being upside down, following a physical point of contact, supporting and giving weight to a partner.
What is Bodystorytelling?
Its a personal process research of bringing ourselves into the moment and inwardly explore what is alive inside. Being aware of our body sensations and giving self permission to express current state by movement or dance.
