New Episode ~ Faces of CI: Conversations on Contact Improvisation


Today I’m joined by Andy Chen (USA / Portugal) — our newest graduate of the Momentum Contact Facilitator Training.


✨ Reflections on the magic of CI jams:


"I really love the jams where I get to dance with a lot of bodies. Then I had a nice dance. That idea that it's always different, and I get to choose to have another chance of feeling joy. For me that's a big change in my mindset. Where in other forms of activities, I might just leave and not come back. For some reason with contact, I keep wanting to go back. That's what it's about."


✨ The mindset shift that keeps him returning to the dance floor

✨ The role of joy and choice in movement practice

✨ Lessons learned from facilitator training and beyond
