Fundamentals of Contact Improvisation - A Playful Journey Through the Essentials

Are you ready to dive into the exhilarating and playful world of Contact Improvisation? Whether you're new to CI or looking to deepen your practice, this workshop will immerse you in the essential principles of CI, with a special emphasis on biomechanics and play. You’ll learn how to move more freely, creatively, and consciously while gaining a deeper understanding of your body’s mechanics and how they relate to your partner’s structure.

In this workshop, you will:

Discover the Biomechanics of Movement with Fun

Unlock the natural movement patterns of both your body and your partner’s, creating smooth, fluid, and effortless connections. We’ll explore key principles such as:

  • Muscle tone

  • Base of support

  • Center of gravity

  • Counterbalance ( push, pull, grab, press)

  • Weight sharing

  • Point of contact

  • Rolling point of contact

  • Slide

  • Momentum

These principles will be explored through spontaneous movement exercises that spark creativity and connection. Play is not just fun—it’s a powerful tool for growth. Through playful interactions, you’ll engage with the fundamentals, break free from rigidity, and discover new movement possibilities. This will help you connect more effectively with your partner, increasing fluidity and fun in your movement.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a solid foundation in the biomechanics of CI and a playful, expansive approach to connecting with others.

Join us for a day of fun, exploration, and learning. We can’t wait to share this experience with youyoga-united-festival.de!
