Class 3:00 pm
Jam 4:30 pm

CLASS
We will explore rolling, falling and flying in CI with the safety of mats as our floor. Dojo comes from “Do-”, a variation of Tao/Dao (the way) and “jo” (immersive learning space). Contact Dojo is a space to explore movement pathways that are in connection with physics and with ease and natural tone in our neurology and cells. 

The slow and subtle brings us to the big and enthusiastic, and vice versa. Centering, perception, inertia of motion, solo/lead/follow, reflexes, experimentation, readiness, rigor, heart, and enlivening will all be in the mix. A broad range of CI will be present — states, skills, scores/Underscore, life learnings.

JAM
The jam will be open space to play and practice — with  music and possible structure/warm-up.

For those experienced and new to CI, honoring different abilities. ~10–25 people. Must register in advance. Please read COVID safety agreements. You can attend only the class or only the jam if room.  Emphasis will be given to those coming to both class & jam. Please arrive a little early.
