"It was when I discovered contact improvisation that I started to dance with the body that I have. No longer any search for correction or perfection. It all came together – the joy, the playfulness, curiosity and presence. In contact improvisation you do not plan or pretend – you are there with you partner here and now – and that alone is enough for me. It brings me in contact with myself and keeps me alive.”
