About this event
A 7-day Contact Improvisation intensive at Spazio il Mulino, Tuscany, led by Carola Robles (Peru). Part of the IN.SIGHT 2026 series (#2). Focus: the spine as the organizing central axis — alignment, grounding, and the embryological pre-vertebral structures (notochord, gut tube, neural tube). Drawing on Body-Mind Centering® approaches, the workshop investigates how spinal awareness shapes presence, movement quality, and relational action in CI. Carola Robles is a Peruvian dancer and Somatic Movement Educator (BMC certified) with 24+ years of practice. She trained with Jeremy Nelson, Julyen Hamilton, and Kirstie Simson, practices aikido, and directs Casa con.tacto in Peru's Sacred Valley. Schedule: arrival Day 1 at 10:00; morning classes 09:30–12:30; afternoon sessions, jams, and labs; departure afternoon Day 7. Max 24 participants. Languages: English, Italian, Spanish. Accommodation: personal tent / shared bell tent (3pp, mattress+pillow) / caravan. Organic vegetarian/vegan meals included. Price: contact spazio.ilmulino@gmail.com.
