Newcomers are highly invited to join. The first 4 classes are designed as an introduction into this multilayered improvisational dance form, that embraces curiosity, deep listening with and to the body, consensual communication through touch, technical explorations shared weight, playfulness, group awareness and many more elements that worship the dance and humanness.

Being able to change levels between the floor and standing is necessary to follow the classes.

JOERG HASSMANN
Inspired by contact improvisation for more than 25 years as a way to understand and celebrate the moving body and human communication. Many kinds of sports, release techniques, somatic work, instant composition and creating dance and theatre performances have informed his dance and his teaching. As the artistic director Joerg has co-created the annual CI festival ‘contact-meets-contemporary’ for over a decade. Together with Daniel Werner he developed a systematic approach to Contact Technique that they taught over 12 years in Training Programmes in Berlin and throughout Europe.
His writings under www.joerghassmann.com/blog/ give deeper insights into his passion.
For the past three years Joerg has been living on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland and is grateful to have options to share his passion and knowledge around the moving body – locally and in other parts of Australia. https://www.joerghassmann.com/
