Synchronicity is the moment when time and space meet as one phenomenon and seemingly unrelated events converge in the magic of new meaning and possibility. The unanticipated appears within dancing moments, allowing for new levels of experience and daring creative action. Physical convergences happen as minds meet through touch. Bringing Contact Improvisational sensory and physical techniques into Dance Improvisation offers dancers new creative and performance skills, while enhancing their choreographic tools. This work supports physical meetings across diverse moving moments enhancing difference while inviting heightened states of presence. As ensembles, we will work across forms (CI and Dance Improvisation) for a spectrum of physical and creative possibilities. We will develop enhanced states of presence, realize the profound importance of attention skills, and access the physicality of spatial touch. As choreographers, we will study the values present in how we develop relations.
