Contact Improvisation is a form of expression based on contemporary dance, postmodern techniques, Chinese wushu, and Japanese aikido. It emphasizes bodily connection and improvised dialogue. Points of physical contact provide the starting point for exploration through improvised movement. Each week, Beijing Contact Improv starts with basic exercises led by a teacher before we have an open jam. Bring comfortable clothes and an open mind.
