The Contact Play Camp is a non-commercial and self-organized camp.
„Spielplatz“ – Wie viel Spaß macht Contact?
"Playground" - How Fun is Contact? [Deutsch unten]
with Damian a.k.a. Touchable
You’re invited to a 7-day journey of daily 2–3 hour sessions, where we (re)turn to the essence of play — curiosity, spontaneity, and joy.
Through games and creative exploration, we’ll dive into the core principles of contact improvisation, moving through inner landscapes and shared terrain.
Together, we’ll explore the space between right and wrong, weight and lift, stillness and momentum. Expect joy, surprise, and moments of pure delight as we (re)discover how fun it is to move, to connect, to play.
We’ll co-create a space that’s grounded and airy, safe and surprising — a living playground.
The Contact Play Camp is a non-commercial and self-organized camp.
It was born out of the desire to combine the joy of Contact Dance and a vacation with children. After four wonderful years, there is again the opportunity this year to spend a week by the lake with friendly people, camping, and dancing. However, you do not have to bring your own child to join. The joy of dancing together is enough.
We come together and create our day as we like it. We will cook, dance, swim, relax in the sun, play guitar...
The camp does not have a fixed pre-organized program but will be created from the creative input of all participants.
Monday and Tuesday are dedicated to settling in and slowing down. The 10x4m dance floor will be rolled out on the meadow, and the tent roof will be set up.
The daily schedule might look something like this:
Until 10 AM: Morning Practice & Breakfast
10 AM - 1 PM: Playtime (Dancing, swimming... whatever we feel like)
12 PM - 2 PM: Cooking together & Lunch
3 PM - 6 PM: Playtime...
6 PM - 8 PM: Cooking together & Dinner
8 PM: Sharing Circle (How was the day, planning for the next day)
From 9 PM: Jamming, campfire, music, putting kids to bed...
