“Inspire Contact Improvisation” is the connection between two apparently separate worlds: Contact Improvisation and Youth Work. Contact Improvisation is a dance form based on the spontaneous communication between moving bodies that are in physical contact. We intend to explore the applicability of this methodology in youth organisations working with young people with fewer opportunities. Contact Improvisation is a resource that can be used to promote inclusion, to work on the physical contact between people, to develop self-acceptance and to improve the active listening and awareness towards others.
“Inspire Contact Improvisation” is a project that contains one activity, a training course. It will take place in tragantCAMP (L'Alzina, Spain) during 7 days, from 25/10/2017 until 31/10/2017 (including travel days). It will gather 25 participants coming from 12 different countries: Spain, Italy, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Greece, Slovakia, UK, Bulgaria, Estonia and Latvia. The hosting organization is Ara En Moviment.
This training course is financed by the Erasmus+ programme, meaning the costs related to food, accommodation and the program itself will mainly be covered by the hosting organisation.
