Brian Buck and the Dance Exchange, as well as some DC CI'ers, are arranging to bring Andrew Harwood here to conduct a full-weekend CI workshop on the weekend of February 18 and 19, 2012. It will be great to bring us all together for two full days of concentrated CI study with a master!
The workshop is designed for more advanced contact improvisers, but open to less skilled levels. There is a lot to be gained by doing what you can and observing exercises that seem like too much. You need to gauge what is worth your while.
Cost for the full weekend: a sliding scale, from $100 to $150 at your discretion. No partial attendance.
You can elect for $75, if you would be willing to help in some additional way - housing for out of towners, food, help with transportation etc., cleaning up - make a suggestion
We will need sufficient preregistration, soon enough, to enable the plans to proceed - if you feel you can commit, please register soon!
