About this Event

Welcome to Communicative Partnering, where our aim is to get as good in body-to-body coordination as we are at language! This second class will look into how we can view CI from three different perspectives to communicate better with another body through games, tasks and movement situations! It will guide you through the overarching concepts of Play, Weightsharing and Touch based CI that could wildly improve your ability to connect with others while remaining intuitive. Expect a lot of fun, dances, exploratory games and possibly a new way to look at Contact Improvisation....I hope to see you there! ------------ Virgil's Bio ------------ Virgil has been interested in Movement his entire life. From doing several sports as a youngster to elite sport in Track & field (an Olympian with the Dutch Relay team 4x100m) to falling in love with his true passion, Movement Training! Virgil has been dancing Contact Improvisation for almost 10 years. He founded FREE PLAY, a Body to Body research that seeks to combine partnering in Dance, Play, Bodywork & Movement games. Coming from an extensive Movement background of Athletics, Dancing, Martial Arts, Parkour, Climbing, and Acrobatics his ultimate goal is to make people move with Grace, Joy, and Competence to further their quality of life.
