>Two years ago, in San Miguel, Carolyn and Leilani
>shared a mystical experience in a Contact
>Improvisation duet. A state in which both were,
>simultaneously and continuously, fully autonomous AND

>traveled separately investigating the nature of that
>dance.
>
>This winter they will meet to exchange what they’ve
>discovered and share that process with others. San
>Miguel de Allende is a lovely colonial town, in the
>high desert of Central Mexico, known for its support
>of the arts. Options for dancing will occur at the
>National School of Fine Arts, public plazas, the
>canyon and hot springs. They will also be sharing the
>dance with the children at the Centro de Crecimiento
>(a local school for children with disabilities) and
>welcome others to participate.
>
>This laboratory is open to all, as the dance begins
>from where you are and develops how you decide. The
>intent is to create an atmosphere that supports the
>individual to create the dancing of their dreams.
