This event was great! Thanks Everybody, from home and far away, for making this a great 3 day weekend! See you next year! -Asheville Jam organizers

 

LIFEDANCE 2015

Asheville’s 5th Annual Summer Jam

How can we bring the intention from our dance into everything we do?

Employ less effort? Find more enjoyment? Connect with ease?

Can we bring the same recognition of improvisation in every moment on the dance floor to all the unique, quirky, awkward, graceful, moments of life itself? Come dance a 68-hour score from Thurs night to Sunday afternoon, bringing our dance awareness to life; from the dance floor to all of our time this weekend, even when we are not dancing. Let’s make each moment wonderful or interesting or healing or fun or edgy or ???

Come join us for great jamming, awesome classes and performances woven into a packed weekend of Contact Improvisation.
