Contact Improvisation Dance Classes

Announcing a 9-week Tuesday class series with Susan Coates, January 19–March 26, 2010 …

Pre-Soak-Wring-Dry:  Transform Through Contact Improvisation
We make connections in the body and with others within the parameters of our personal and societal boundaries—cultural norms, personal space and comfort, and everyday movements create our “pathways of possibility” in the body and with one’s social and physical environment. In this class series we will playfully push these boundaries to their limits while deepening further into the mechanics of Contact Improvisation, focusing on moving from the spiral, efficiently organizing the body, and creating awareness into how to become aware, receptive, responsive, and clear in the dance. Informal improvisational performance scores included.
