Dance to Cello

Dance to Cello. This is a dance session for contact improvisation with an introduction /warm-up and musical accompaniment by cello. All are welcome including those not at Oxford University and beginners.

Contact improvisation is a dance which originated in the 1970’s and which has now spread throughout the world. It’s often taught in university dance courses but it’s easy to learn and fun. It’s an improvised dance - a dialogue in movement - which has a fluid and dynamic form, and it’s social dancing; not stage dancing. Suitable for everyone, whatever your age, gender or dancing experience.

Please wear loose clothing in which you can move freely and bring a water bottle. Note that the session is in the Multi-Purpose Room in the basement. Please ask at the reception if necessary.

Afterwards, we'll go for afternoon tea and cake.

Price: £10
