About this event

TOWARDS CI54 — a 4-week summer residency and intensive workshop in Contact Improvisation at Chiang Dao Youth Camp, an open-air dance space beneath Doi Luang Mountain in northern Thailand, beside a small stream and 10 minutes from a natural hot spring. The 54th edition of the long-running Towards CI series, led by Sasha Dodo and Dolores Dewhurst Marks. The programme is inquiry-based: participants are invited to approach CI as a transformative practice and cutting-edge art form, cultivating readiness for radical change and deepening their connection with nature's forces and wisdom. Daily work includes solo practices for preparing the body-mind, study of falling and rolling, fundamental principles of CI with emphasis on continuity of attention, ensemble practices, retrospectives, and open research time. Sliding scale fees with scholarship opportunities available. Application deadline: 1 July 2026. See info pack for full pricing and registration.
