For those who feel the call to dive into the art and technique of Contact Improvisation.
To develop trust, embodied connection, and the sweet gift of sharing weight and presence.
This series is for those wanting to expand their range of skills AND discover creative and compositional artistry in their dancing.
Contact Improvisation is a partner dance form based on the physical principles of touch, momentum, shared weight, and following a shared point of contact.
This dance practice explores the skills of falling, rolling, counterbalance, lifting using minimal effort, making ourselves light when being lifted, and responsiveness to our surroundings.
Your Guide
Shannon is devoted to inspiring students to experience their own essence through play, inner strength and nourishment. Contact Improvisation is the love of her life, and Shannon geeks out on articulating the mechanics of weight sharing and how to trust your own architecture.
