THE CONTACT BODY & MIND

Availability is a major ingredient for me, when I think of a Contacters Body. Open directions in all my body parts at any moment. It is quite an artistery in terms of tone modulation: being fluid enough to follow the unpredictable flow and at the same time having strength and structure, where needed to support myself and others.

I am increasingly interested in what role the mind plays in this. I like imagining the mind as a muscle. What tone does it benefit from? Tightness and collapse won’t create availability… But a lower tone helps to take in, resonate and respond. Courage might come from a higher tone, daring to give spice, direction and surprise into the dance.

We’ll bounce between specific exercises, technical essentials and open frames and will have space enough for satisfying dancing.
