In this contact improvisation/floorwork workshop we will investigate our relationship to different landscapes in which we find support within our dances. The partnership we are always in relationship with, the dance that doesn't end, is that with the floor. We will find softness in our connection with the ground which will then translate to our dance with others. This is an all levels workshop that will explore fundamental concepts of Contact Improv and floorwork and how the forms inform each other.
