Going Up Thinking Down Going Down Thinking up
Contact Improvisation happens in different directions and sometimes we are tempted to forget the different choices we have inside them and organize our body only on the way that our dance takes place.
But what will change when we leave our bodies and organize us them in multiple path? What happen if we leave the Plan?
In this intensive we will look to extend the body through precise movement techniques and skills from Contact Improvisation: Spins, Inversions, Aerial Space, Weight, Touching Qualities, Gravity, Body and Spherical Space.
We will explore different ways to go, fall and land on the floor, in solo, duets and groups, awakening ours reflexes and perception, with Aikido elements in Contact Improvisation and the way to expand skills in our dance and improvisation.
