Contact Improvisation in Malaga : dance, movement, connection, awareness, play

🇬🇧 Join us for an open, explorative space where movement becomes a language of connection, trust, and expression. Contact Improvisation (CI) is a dynamic dance form based on shared weight, momentum, and deep listening to yourself and others. This is jam, which means it's a space to learn and practice the artform. 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸 **Bilingual Space! SE HABLA ESPAÑOL!** Most participants speak both **English & Spanish**, and guidance is available in both languages. 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸 🇪🇸 [DESCRIPCIÓN de que se trata una jam de contact impro EN ESPAÑOL ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oswgm5mh2I): Each session is a chance to: 🤲 Develop presence & body awareness 🌊 Explore fluid movement & weight-sharing 💫 Cultivate trust, spontaneity & creative expression 🔄 Experience the joy of physical play & improvisation **No experience is needed**—just an open mind and curiosity to move! *** ### 📌 Important! Read this Safety Document before attending https://pastebin.com/5ssq9MRC *** ### 🔄 Jam Format Our **Contact Jam** is an open movement space with minimal structure—designed for free exploration, creative play, and spontaneous movement flow. We begin with a **gentle warm-up** to tune into the body and the space, followed by an **open jam** where you are free to explore movement solo, with partners, or in groups. Whether you’re rolling, lifting, spiraling, or simply observing, you decide how to engage. Some guiding principles: ✨ Listen to your body—move as much or as little as you like ✨ Follow momentum, gravity & shared weight ✨ Stay aware & responsive to others in the space ✨ Respect boundaries—contact is always an invitation, not an expectation ✨ No set roles—no leader, no follower, just movement unfolding in the moment We close with a short **integration**—a moment to breathe, settle, and land softly after the movement journey. Every jam is unique—come as you are and move as you feel!
