Contact improvization crosses the borders of sport, dance and therapy and is capable of giving new impulses to each of these areas. This book contains specific exercises, instructions, choreographic structures and ideas on how to lead a contact improvization workshop, with practical examples tried and tested by the author. The book explains areas of New Dance - Bartenieff work, Anna Halprin process, and body-mind-centering - and covers the theoretical themes of balance, weight, improvization, movement-qualities (impluse, space, time), release, the inner ear, closeness/distance, touch and performance as a healing process.
