9th FESTIVAL of CONTACT IMPROVISATION

9th FESTIVAL of CONTACT IMPROVISATION in Madrid

with Joerg Hassmann, Katja Mustonen & Urs Stauffer

March 17th to 20th, 2016 

This Festival creates a frame to practice Contact Improvisation, where the urge for movement also feeds the solo dance, and where CI technique is balanced by the deeper question of how we are in relationship with our dancepartners and the surrounding as a whole. It is inspired by the idea of 'CI as an art sport'. This was an attempt from Simon Forti to describe Contact Improvisation in the very early days. It includes the physicality in the sport, and the creativity in the art. Three highly experienced teachers will knit their different knowledge and methods into a benefitial journey for the group as a whole. Classes, jams, performative frames and scores will provide different settings to learn, to meet, dance and explore. As always with Live music.
