Look how high the river was in Shrewsbury last night!!!People arrived for Contact wondering if their cars would still be in the Gateway car park afterwards!
They were and we were all safe.... and managed to let it all stay safely outdoors as our worries washed away and we sank into some beautiful contact improvisation work.
Between Your Dance and My Dance there exists the Dance,
alive as an entity with an identity all of its own.

We explored similar principles in The Bridge Youth Dance Company, only with this group we are using a ball as our point of contact. The exercise begins as a game, the challenge: to keep the ball off the floor without using our hands. We also managed to explore this whilst traveling through the space, moving the ball between us as we traveled, creating a trio of 2 bodies and a ball. We might one day take the ball away and dance this as a duet.... watch this space.......
