Training Ground: a Contact Improvisation Intensive

About this event

A 4-day Contact Improvisation intensive with Rick Nodine exploring the ground that CI dances on. We will build connection to earth, through the floor, with solo somatics and simple but essential patterns that underpin the CI body. We will grow confidence in falling, rolling and inverting ourselves so that our partner dances can expand beyond habitual limits. Extended contact dancing guided by scores that demand connection through principles will guide us to the edges we need to work at. We will also reclaim the floor as a playground for fresh explorations of the form and the pleasures of improvisation for its own sake. Taught in English. Prices are teaching fees only and do not include food or accommodation.
