Contact Improvisation Winter Intensive with Joerg Hassmann
02.01.-07.01.2026 @Eden****** Studios, Berlin

* For experienced contacters
* Max 35 participants
* First time at Eden***** Studios with a smooth wooden floor

It is a special time when we meet to dance: after all the “end of year pressures” and celebrations, yet before the regular rhythm of daily life returns. My wish is that we let the dust settle, sink into the moment, and touch an alive inner calmness that enhances our presence with “what is.” Alive pausing … a sweet way to challenge habits, open new directions, and sense connections beyond touch.

I long for a fullness in our dancing – with many flavors: juicy animal bodies, wildness and weirdness, suspension and spaciousness … yet without forcing anything.

We will use bodysurfing for an embodied sense of groundedness, connecting deeply to gravity with lush bodies, wondering if and when the urge emerges to jump, fly and fall. Somatic work and Contact Improvisation technique will serve as anchors for the physicality of our journey.

For experienced contacters
Participants should be very familiar with Contact Improvisation technique, which will be our common language for this Intensive. For your orientation: We imagine a regular practice of at least two years. In case of doubt, check in with us.
