The Ponderosa Annual Contact Improvisation Jam (July 13-15)
Ponderosa began as a weekend Contact Jam. The Contact Improvisation community basically built our kitchen, guest house, studios,solar showers and compost toilets while dancing in between. If you have never done Contact we offer beginners classes lead by the infamous Pondi team and will orientate you to the art of jamming. Contact Improvisation is the heart and soul of the Ponderosa experience. The evenings are mixed with jams, sauna, talks, video showings, bar, fireside chats and/or spontaneous discos and informal showings.
Fr-Sun all incl. 90€ (register before June 15th: 80€)
