Touching the Moment: From Stillness to Impulse to Action
Contact Improvisation is an honoring of every moment. There is a sweet
surrendering that happens when our bodies stay faithful to what is happening
now, and now... and NOW! In this workshop we learn to recognize and
differentiate the subtle impulses in our choices and our partner's choices.
We begin to decipher the cues that we give and receive which tell us when to
lead or follow, when to go up, when to go down, where to touch, how to lift,
when to slow down, and when to be still. Learn to stay in integrity with
each choice, never forcing, never rushing. When Body, Mind, and Spirit are
united in their instinctive wisdom we find our-selves at home in every
moment expressing our true nature in the dance.              - For the
Beginner in all of us
