A Contact Improv Summer

Monday nights @ The Parlor continue to rise to new heights.

Come on out this Monday (July 27th) for class with me, Adams Berzins. We've dug deep into the world of awareness and momentum the last few months and I want to up the ante and see us work with inversions and lift to see where our new awareness takes us. Even if you are new to contact, don't be afraid, we want to have you find your lift and height. Just feeling a split second of surrender to weight can be the building block to high flying or inverting. You don't have to be a hulk to give lift and you don't need to be a veteran contacter to be lifted and feel comfortable with a little, or a lot of, loft. All levels are always welcome.

After a well attended, exciting and truly successful class last week, the talented Greg Holt will be teaching his very own series through out the month of August. TIME CHANGE - starting @ 7:30 pm - TIME CHANGE. 

GREGORY HOLT is a freelance dancer moving heartily around Philly.  He is a core member of the collaborative Green Chair Dance Group, and also dances with several local choreographers. He has made dance films with fellow dancer An Kaler, which have been shown in numerous international queer and dance film festivals. With a strong interest in improvisation and shared authorship, he has performed with many provisional, virtual, and experiemental groups. He teaches seminars in dance composition at the Institute for Dance Art in Linz, Austria.

Come on out and breathe your energy into this ever growing community.
