In touch with yourself
Contact means: being in touch with yourself and your surroundings in a playful improvised and spontaneous way whilst dancing/meeting each other being with ourselves.

Own risk
Joining our sessions is always on your own risk! We are not responsible for any physical injury.
The classes are focussed on techniques and the jamsessions are explorations of your movements. 

Boundaries
Everyone is responsible for their own boundaries. Meaning we can’t feel what just feels right for you. Sometimes it feel right to sit for yourself and take a break walk through the room or only dance with 1 person in that jam/class. Never fear to reject somebody if the situation does not feel right for you.

Body signals
Pay attention to your body signals. Often in daily life we don’t listen to them this is an opportunity to create more awareness for our body.

Be careful with intimacy
In comparison to other dance forms contactimprovisation is not meant to be as some couple interaction to raise mutual attraction or act it out,  but as an intuitive form of non-verbal communication through movement. Please don’t follow some hidden agenda to find intimacy with your partners.
At Kahbam we prefer to explore contactimprovisation in a technical way!

Free to step out
During the class/jam you are free to step out sit on the side walk out of the room or do whatever feels good for you.

Limit talking
No regular communication during the session body language and verbal exited gibberish sounds are okay.

No shoes jewellery or perfume
No shoes are worn on the dance floor. Also take off jewellery that can hurt you or your partner. And please don’t wear (strong) perfume.

Awareness of space
During the jam:  please be aware of the space. Need rest/ lay down? Choose for the sides instead in the middle of the space where the action is happening.
