Jens Riszmann
  • Fencing as a competitive sport
  • Contact and enthusiasm for improvisation theatre and performances
  • „Playing Arts“ Drama and theatre education in Gelnhausen
  • 1998 Start of a regular Taiji Chuan practice
  • Change from fencing as a distance sport to judo as a contact sport
  • 2012 Discovery of Contact Improvisation as a playful form of movement without winners or losers

As a Contact Improvisation Instructor and Taiji Teacher I research the possibilities of playfully easy, flowing movement in body and mind and combine personal essences of my "movement biography" from martial arts, Taiji and play.
