Women's Monthly Contact Improvisation Jam

Women’s Jam 🌷 Spring Session This contact improvisation (CI) jam is intended as a space for those who were born in female bodies, regardless of gender expression. In this space, we will explore the resonance of our bodies and how they connect us to each other. This space offers an opportunity to explore the dance without the presence of the dynamics that can emerge in CI spaces that include all genders. While we honor the beauty and opportunity of these dynamics, we are curious to support and explore what we can create in the absence of them. In coming together in an open movement space, can we offer healing to the places we have experienced pain within these tender relational spaces? Can we let our systems relax and soften together? Can we support one another’s grace and empowerment? Hosted by Chaya Aronson and Meta Bobbe (and perhaps some guests), this is an open form jam space, not a workshop, with invitations and scores to support the experience. Details: Second Monday of the month, April - June with the intention of beginning again in September Beginning April 8th, 2024 (new moon and solar eclipse day) ending June 10, 2024 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm We will have a brief opening circle at 7:30 pm and a brief closing circle (non-mandatory) with clear start and end times. We will oscillate between music and silence. Stay tuned for guest musicians! Karuna Center for Yoga and Healing Arts 25 Main Street, 3rd floor Northampton MA $30 - $15 suggested donation
