RI Contact Improv presents:

A Blindfold Jam w/ Rebecca Foster & DJ Mystical Michael
Studio Exhale: 1263 Oaklawn Ave Cranston, RI 02920
To build this unique container with care, Rebecca will orient all dancers to the basic intentions & agreements of blindfold jams (using Moti Zemelman's guidelines) and offer an opening group warm-up. During the jam we will always have at least 2 people without blindfolds to maintain safety in the space. Note: There will be blindfolds available but please bring your own if you have one.
Why Blindfolded?

By removing our dominant sense door (and requiring us to move slowly for the sake of safety), blindfold jams turn a light onto all of the internal sensory & navigation processes that take us from one moment to the next. When and how do we choose to move (or not), respond (or not), allow (or not) in service of safe, satisfying & connected dances?
Rebecca Foster thrives (in dance as well as in life) on playful improvisation and nourishing contact. Learn more at: https://embodyfreedom.net/
Michael Swerdloff has been a DJ for over thirty years & enjoys the experience of providing a soundscape for Contact Improvisation as a catalyst for connection and creativity.
***Space is Limited. We highly recommend reserving your spot ahead of time.***
