Contact Improvisation is a free-form dance where you maintain a constant point of contact with your partner, using touch, momentum and weight. You learn skills like falling, rolling, counterbalance and lifting. Beyond techniques, the dance is fully intuitive and improvised in the here and now. That’s the essence—flowing in the moment. You learn to sense your partner and follow your impulses to create a shared flow where your true nature emerges.
