๐™ข๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ก๐™ฎ | Contact Dance

A slow, exploratory session into contact dance: movement, connection and collaboration between two people. Through intuitive movement and different points of contact, no hands, we find a neutral, accessible way to explore movement, weight and presence together, without the pressure of choreography or "getting it right". Set to immersive mixes from Om Being, the music and movement blend into one continuous experience, allowing you to sink fully into sensation and connection, discovering new pathways to express through movement.

Beginner friendly and open to all, no experience or partner needed. This is a space to slow down, listen through the body and discover what it feels like to move in true collaboration with another person.

Led by Juan Sanchez Plaza, a Spanish-born, London-based movement artist, choreographer, yoga teacher and sound practitioner working at the intersection of movement, sound and embodied awareness. With a background in contemporary dance, yoga, somatic practices and sound therapy, Juan brings together dynamic movement, improvisation, breathwork and presence to create experiences that support both expression and introspection, encouraging participants to reconnect with themselves through movement, rhythm, stillness and collective experience.
