Jungwoong Kim Contact Improvisation and Presence!

Come work in a close group with a master of movement and performance! The principal focus of this workshop with Jungwoong Kim will be building awareness of personal performance space, sensation of time and capacity for respectful engagement with others. For this we will engage in deep listening and use aural stimulation to activate sensate dancing. Based on principles of Contact Improvisation, such as moving with the floor, body surfaces, weight, and structure we will enter into spherical space and engage with our impulses. Architecture,animate and inanimate objects, and the natural environment inform us. Our work together will be safe, focused, and playful. At the end of the workshop we will share with the local community the results of our time together as a way of crystallizing our experiences and engaging another layer of consciousness.
