Human touch unites the forces that act upon the body with the sensations they produce withing the body. Contact Improv draws from post-modern dance, aikido, and couple dances like tango and waltz.
Duets are common, but solos and small groups often mix in.
Most often the dance is a capella, without music. But sometimes improvised music plays back and forth with the dancers. Contact Improv is free of gender roles. All dancers, with experience, flow easily from gentle rolls on the floor to lifting and flying. Here are some photos to give you a clearer view.
