Contact Improvisation Next session begins in June

What is Contact Improvisation?
Contact Improvisation (CI) is a dance form based on the ongoing dialogue between two bodies that are in physical contact, improvising with weight, listening, balance, gravity, momentum, reflex and inertia. In our CI classes at Urbana Dance Company we study, explore and define CI fundamental concepts: the rolling point of contact, falling and rolling, weight exchange, counterbalance and off-balance, basic lift vocabulary and principles, continuity of motion, momentum and physical listening. We move with others while taking care of our own body and needs. No experience is required; we will be building this community together!
