About Contact Improvisation:

CI is a partner dance form using physical contact, weight sharing and
human connection as the impetus for the dance. The point of contact is
used as a fulcrum for unusual movement not physically possible in a
solo dance. Using gravity and momentum the dance unfolds in unexpected
ways. As an improvisational form, there is an emphasis on being present
and open to the unknown. All levels of movement experience and ability
are welcome to practice CI. There is no judgment about what is beautiful
or ugly. It is a deeply personal and experiential dance. The quality of
the dance is gauged by how the dancers themselves experience it. There
are specific techniques and forms that one can learn and practice in
order to make the dance safer and more enjoyable, but these techniques
are not an end; There are a means towards a unique, unrepeatable dance.
