In this intensive, we explore the connection between contact improvisation, partnering, floor work, soft acrobatics, and object work.
It’s not about repetition — it’s about experiencing, discovering, and exploring through movement.
It's about how bodies meet, share weight, and create momentum — through presence, attention, and subtle impulses.

We move from the floor, through the space, and up into the air — between stability and motion, between impulse and stillness. With elements from floor work, soft acrobatics, body surfing, spiral movement principles, improvisation, and object manipulation, a vivid dialogue of dynamics, focus, and playfulness emerges.

We shift between solo moments, where you explore your own flow of movement; duets, where motion becomes dialogue; trios, which challenge balance, orientation, and focus in new ways; and group sequences, where individual movement condenses into collective energy.

Contact improvisation and partnering become a field of research in which we explore, with curiosity and playfulness, what connection can mean — beyond perfection, hierarchy, or habit. We practice presence, openness, and trust in our own responsiveness. This creates a space in which movement becomes humanity again — a practice of listening, responding, and wondering together.
