Contact Improvisation Round Up

Contact Improvisation Round Up

Thank everyone who's come to the first two weeks of our Mondays in May series. If you haven't made it yet, don't miss another step, there are two weeks left.

This week - may 18th- Sara Narva returns with another fun and exciting class.

We've rooted ourselves into listening and awareness, and finding the possibilities that can arise from that place. Find out where you can go when you make yourself aware.

Come on down to The Parlor
(1170 S. Broad st.)

Class starts at 7PM - please come 5-10 minutes early to sign in and warm up.

Jam starts after 8:30 - so if you're only coming to jam, please come after that.

$12-$15 per class
$50 for 5 classes deal
Other discounts and arrangements available
