Hello and welcome to our latest episode! We are here in Vancouver, Canada at Edam Dance Company, which holds a special place in my heart as it's the first studio I learned contact at and a beautiful space. Today I'm pleased to interview Anne Cooper, a Contact Improvisation teacher at Edam for 20+ years, artist, performer, and choreographer. Her Sunday classes are super welcoming for newcomers with her patient inquiring approach to Improvisation. We discuss performance, choreography, improv at a distance during Covid, funding for dancers, and.. how Contact is a metaphor for a perfect day at the beach! ● Follow along @facesofci on Instagram for more. ● Learn Contact online at www.contactbody.ca ● You can find Edam's class schedule at edamdance.squaresite.com
