Taught by Christian Swenson (Facilitator of the Velocity Sunday Movement Jam 2-4:30pm every Sunday)

Christian has been dancing CI since the early 1980’s. A veteran improviser of many styles he brings a heightened sense of play to this practice.

In these classes we will explore weight sharing, muscle tone, momentum, varieties of touch, controlled falling, lifting and being lifted and nurturing a healthy sense of trust.

Contact Improvisation Jam

Every Sunday from 2 – 4:30pm ($5 – $8) at Velocity Dance in Seattle http://velocitydancecenter.org

The Contact Improvisation/Movement jam is an open event, welcoming everyone. Jams have been happening around the world since the 1980’s, and typically include people across a broad range of experience. It’s not a class, but usually includes people happy to explore at whatever level, discuss questions, and if asked, provide guidance. If you’re willing to explore in order to find your way, the jam is a great opportunity to practice and enjoy contact improvisation.
