[CI-Announce] Women's Contact Improvisation at Earthdance

June 6-8 - Women's Contact Improvisation
Lani Nahele (Lisa Schmidt) and Shakti Andrea Smith

Join us as we enter the dance of Contact Improvisation with Women: For the 
safety of it, for the challenge of it. For the fact that we know each other's 
bodies as we know ourselves. For the "deliciousness" of women in community 
with each other. Being with our curves, our strength, and the delight of our 
empathic listening. We will practice lifting and carrying, using our strength 
with new ease. We'll work with trust, balance, and our willingness to give 
weight. This event will encourage taking leadership and initiative, as women 
and as dancers. Tuition/Room/Board: $250. To register, please contact 
Earthdance at 413-634-5678 or visit www.earthdance.net.
