CI Juice Lab invites you to sweat out some serious juice. Liquify your spine. Yield. Push. Reach out and bring your flava. Hook, envelope, and pull your parters using fundamental and evolving elements of the developmental score, noticing habits and choices in between--where that sticky residue is. So Bring your juicylicious booty and we'll work some skills, mix it up, and dance our big hearts out.

CI = Contact Improvisation

Contact Improvisation = A dynamic movement form in which two or more bodies interact spontaneously with each other by maintaining contact and simultaneously interpreting the common parameters of gravity, weight, momentum, friction and inertia to achieve continuous flow. Contact Improv is dance-sport-martial art-meditationrolled into one. As the term contact improv implies, this movement form encourages the drawing together of bodies in a creative and collaborative context. Contact improvisation provides opportunities for personal, social and cultural differences to be expressed on common ground, through physical parameters that are common to all human beings.


This workshop is for folks experienced with the fundamentals of Contact Improvisation.
