Falling in love might be easy but falling in dance can be trickier! In this 'laboratory' session, we'll investigate falling which is fun, safe and dynamic using techniques from contact improvisation. Let's lab!

Contra-balancing and rotation; spiralling and our bodies natural elasticity can direct our momentum to make falling less down and more up! Beside our investigation, there will be an hours dance session (jam) where you can dance freely. Andrew Wood will facilitate the session.

Please wear loose clothing in which you can move freely and bring a bottle of water. Note: We'll use the MPR (Multi-Purpose Room) on the lower floor. Some experience of Contact Improvisation helpful but not essential.

(**Note: Membership of Oxford Contact Dance is £10 for the calendar year 2018. You can purchase membership at your first session with us which gives discounts and a say in the running of Oxford Contact Dance - a constituted association.)
