What is "contact improvisation"?
Contact improvisation is a dance style that focuses on spontaneous movement and physical interaction between dancers. It involves partners using their bodies to make contact, explore weight shifts, and respond to each other's movements in real-time. This dance style emphasizes collaboration, balance, and fluidity, allowing dancers to improvise and create dynamic, flowing movements together. Contact improvisation is known for its open, experimental nature and is often used in workshops, performances, and social dance settings.
