How to be empty?

How to be a body of action?

How to become another?

𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 & 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 is an exploration of consciousness—our ability to be aware and know what’s happening—and the body, our means of acting and moving together in/as the world. This journey unfolds within the framework of Contact Improvisation.

• Emptiness: The fertile space within where clarity arises. Without it, action is blind and directionless.

• Clarity: The ability to perceive the present clearly and anticipate the near future.

• Action: The gift of the body, enabling us to engage, express, and co-create the unfolding future. Without action, emptiness becomes passive and disconnected.

This workshop synthesizes the yin-yang dynamic—balancing receptive stillness and active engagement. Inspired by Steve Paxton’s “third entity,” we will explore the moment in dance where boundaries blur, and a shared, co-creative state emerges.

“It is the state of agreement between the two of you that neither one is leading… the two of you are leading.” — Steve Paxton

We invite you to join this exploration of active yang and receptive yin, individually and in contact. Limited spots are available, so register soon if the resonance calls you. Bring your own questions and help shape the weekend with us.
