Moving with Trust, Touch & Emergence
4-Week Introductory Series

Contact Improvisation is a playful, intuitive dance form rooted in trust, presence, and embodied connection—with yourself, others, and gravity itself. It’s a formless form that continues to open my heart and move my life in surprising and transformative ways.

Yet for many of us, the idea of spontaneous movement—or coming into physical contact with others—can bring up hesitation. That’s completely natural.

This 4-class series is a gentle, inclusive introduction to the foundational principles of Contact Improvisation. Through guided somatic practices, we’ll explore:

  • How to listen to your body’s yes, no, and maybe
  • Building trust through clear communication and consent
  • The art of weight-sharing and following points of contact
  • Finding ease in movement that emerges moment by moment

You’ll be supported in expanding your comfort zone at your own pace, with plenty of space for reflection, discussion, and integration. After the third class, we’ll hold an open conversation circle to share insights, ask questions, or tend to anything that’s arisen in the practice.

No experience is necessary. Curiosity, openness, and willingness to explore are enough.
You're encouraged (but not required) to attend the full series for the richest experience.

Come as you are—Contact Improvisation welcomes exactly what’s alive in you, right now.
