Can I bring my kid/s?
Kids are magical beings and we welcome them. If you bring yours, please stay near them and make sure they are safe and respectful of all jam guidelines.
I haven't done Contact Improv in 20 years! Is this jam right for me?
We invite dancers/humans of all levels of experience and types of ability to this jam. We trust you to know your limits and we encourage you to observe and rest as you'd like. If you have questions or need help, please feel free to approach Leah or anyone else that looks open to offering support.
I've never done CI and barely know what it is. How can I participate?
Absolute beginners should let the host know that they are new to the form so that proper support and guidance can be provided. You are welcome to watch for the first jam, if you'd like, or if you'd like to join in, we will make sure you are buddied up with someone who can show you some basics. Witnessing other dancers is always welcome and is a valued contribution to the dance environment.
Is the studio accessible by wheelchair?
Unfortunately, it is not. Please email us to let us know how we can best make your attendance possible and comfortable.

Being A Body, Retreat @ Groundworks
Join us once again at Groundworks in the Hudson Valley for a lush weekend of movement and creative practice. Being A Body is a series of intentional offerings inspired by seasonal shifting - and designed to meet the people who fill the room, as well as the broader context of our collective experience. Through various movement classes and creative offerings, participants are invited into deeper intimacy with themselves, with each other, and with the fabric of the surrounding landscape. As your facilitators, we uphold an opt in / opt out structure, allowing participants to take as much space as they need as they move through the weekend. We are interested in play, connection, physicality, and rest - and how each season mentors our minds and bodies, and stewards the way we see, think, and move. Come for ecosomatic and dance-inspired practice, creative exercises, access to sauna and cold plunging, and lots of space to wander, explore, rest, and settle - however you feel moved to do so.
Your facilitators — Charlotte Stickles, Maddie Leonard-Rose, and Sayer Mansfield— are seasoned creative and somatic professionals with years of experience working in embodiment, connection and care.

Dao Yin with Shinichi Iova-Koga
Dao Yin
Mondays, March 2–30
9:30–11:00 AM
Shinichi Iova-Koga
Dao Yin practices develop the elasticated quality of connective body tissues to develop a more resilient structure throughout the body. Pressure and expansion opens the joints and spaces between the layers of the physical body, improving the efficiency of energy production. When the pathways of the body open, pathogenic qi can exit the body and healthy qi can circulate more efficiently. All levels welcome!
