Project Overview

Contact Improvisation Dance Luxembourg is an ambitious and community-centered initiative aimed at fostering social cohesion, artistic exploration, and personal growth through the transformative practice of contact improvisation dance. Rooted in the principles of spontaneity, collaboration, and self-expression, this project seeks to create a dynamic and inclusive space where individuals from diverse backgrounds can come together to explore movement, cultivate connections, and unleash their creative potential.

Our Mission

Our mission is to create a welcoming and supportive environment where participants can connect authentically, explore their artistic potential, and grow personally through the practice of contact improvisation. By fostering community connection, encouraging creative expression, and promoting holistic well-being, we aim to build a vibrant, inclusive space that bridges diverse cultural backgrounds and enhances mutual understanding through the universal language of movement.
