Contact Improvisation Winter Intensive with Joerg Hassmann 

Grounding & Fragile Balances

One essential ingredient of CI technique is that we constantly create fragile balances - to loose them and to catch them again. Static stability produces safety and stuckness in what we know but does not serve an alive dance.

I want to give a good sense of grounding to grow the necessary trust so we can let go of holding patterns that limit aliveness. I want to invite the pleasure of subtleties that change the way we experience ourselves, the dance and maybe bits of our life beyond.

Detailed and calm solo- and partner-work will be the base line from where we will find out how far each of us wants to taste more excitement. The highly rewarding experiences from my Summer Intensive around Jamming culture will leave their traces also in this workshop.
