Contact Improvisation Class- Weekly - İDA Dojo - Cennetayağı Mah. Edremit / Balıkesir, Turkey

We are going through times when the concepts of contact, distance, and closeness have changed and our relationship and communication with other bodies has been redefined. In order to reconnect with ourselves and the environment, we start small contact improvisations. Yağmur from the Contact Improvisation Turkey Team starts sharing regularly at the Ida Dojo in Edremit. Details below!

“Body to Body Talk“

Every Wednesday 18:00-19:30 

It emerged with the movement researches in the field of contemporary dance in the USA in the early 1970s and is developed and practiced by amateur and professional dancers along with the cultural movements of the period.

Contact Improvisation, which is an improvised dance form, is based on making contact, body-to-body communication by perceiving and listening to the space and the bodies in the space by using gravity and acceleration through the senses and sensations.

These posts will support body awareness and bodily communication skills, and are an invitation to act freely and together with single or paired work*. It includes work on bringing body and mind into the here and now, relaxation and recognition. It shows the ways of listening to oneself and other bodies through sensations. Dance is more like a moving puzzle. This dance, where no one can predict what will happen and everything develops at the same time, is a physical conversation.

These sharings, which are open to everyone’s participation, are independent of each other. Each week, both technical and creative improvisation and awareness studies will be presented together with a specific focus. I recommend that you continue regularly.

You can write to us to participate in the studies or for more information.

*Partner works are organized by considering the pandemic conditions and are open to solo work.

*For the classes we propose contribution weekly or monthly. If you cannot afford we can talk for a middle way.
