We want to offer a space to develop our moving body, deepen our understanding and personal journey into this dance through a longer period of time. This CI Training Program creates the opportunity to study Contact Improvisation systematically and continuously with a group of people we come to trust. It offers precise technique and support for the individual learning process. In the technical part of our investigation, we will work in smaller groups in order to offer ?tools? and material for people with different levels of experience. We seek to create space for individual interests and needs. In our work it is important to us to maintain the balance between a technical exploration as a development of a mutual language and the freedom of speaking this language ? dancing ? communicating, improvising, playing freely in dance. We are interested in how awareness, trust and feeling within the group will change, develop and grow ? how is our communication, our interaction and our actual way of being together influenced by our dance practice and our time together? This year we are excited to offer an ?open continuation? which will build on the experience and material of the previous CI Workshop Series in Hamburg. We want to create the opportunity to learn and play with a group of people sharing a common knowledge of CI. Nonetheless we would like to keep it open for people who are interested in this kind of learning environment to join! We welcome all people with a solid level of experience in CI (please contact us if you have any questions). WELCOME!

Message-ID: <737E068B-589A-461E-9092-593050B6D3A0@gmail.com> It's time to register for the Fall 2012 East Coast Contact Jam, October 17-21 in the Shenandoah Valley, not far from Washington, DC The East Coast Jam is a glorious four-day contact improvisation jam, held each fall and spring at Claymont Court, Charles Town, West Virginia. We dance in an octagonal barn and live in a great white mansion, linked by a walk through gardens and fields and forests. All meals (succulently prepared by Claymont staff) are included. From now until September 25, register for the fall jam at the base price of $310. The price goes up on September 26, so don't delay! Visit eastcoastjam.com for details and online registration. Only a $50 deposit (not refundable after Sept. 25) is required at the time of registration, by PayPal or a cheque in the mail. The East Coast Jam is a collaboration ? much like a dance. Warmups, workshops, performances, and other structures are initiated and led by us, the jammers. When we're not dancing, there's conversation, music, exploring field and forest, poetry, chocolate, theater, walks, games... As ever, spread the word by inviting the people you'd like to dance with, and forwarding this message to interested communities. We want to continue to grow and deepen this lovely gathering. In anticipation of dancing in a few weeks, we hope you'll be with us! Cheryl, Justin, Carole-Anne Fall 2012 organizers -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
