Monthly Jam held in Ithaca, NY at the Ahimsa Yoga Center, located at 215 North Cayuga Street in the Dewitt Mall, directly opposite the entrance to Moosewood Restaurant. Beginners are always welcome, bring a friend! Occasional classes and workshops are also offered.

We hold a monthly JAM at the Ahimsa Yoga Studio on the third Sunday of the month from 1-3 PM. This coincides
with an event called Dance Church and there is a mix of people attending who are into free movement and contact. All abilities welcome, beginners too.

A monthly event for sketch artists to draw dancers as models-in-motion and for dancers to improvise with one another, while being inspired to move by the art in the making! This is a unique opportunity to explore the combination of visual, motion-based and audio arts. As host, Green Space hopes to provide a relaxed environment for spontaneous, free expression and improvisation between the different forms while encouraging synergy amongst artists. These sessions are open to artists, dancers, musicians and viewers alike.

*Artists should bring simple materials x non-messsy, accoustic, etc.

Movement Research at Eden's Expressway
These weekly classes are open to people of all levels of movement experience, and are informed by the individual teaching artists. Teaching artists change every month so see www.movementresearch.org for details.

The Open Movement Jam consistently draws 40 to 50 contact and non-contact movement improvisers and dance-friendly musicians, meeting absolutely all Monday evenings at the Childrens Aid Society in the center of Greenwich Village, NYC. We are open to all sorts of movers — including those who may be trained in or trying out various dance forms, contact improv, theater, martial arts, yoga and other styles — and welcome participants with all sorts of physical capabilities. We continue to mix many out-of-town visitors and other newcomers with semi-regulars and regular participants, meeting in this enormous, beautiful space.

The jam and its predecessors have 40 years of continuous participation:
- Carrier Pigeon events of the 1960s (conceived by Kenneth King, still the most accomplished and supportive improviser around)
- Robert Wilson School of Byrds of the 1970s (from which more than a dozen of the collaborators still participate, including the great Christopher K.)
- Open Movement at PS 122 from the 1970s-90s (founded by Charles Dennis, who regularly contributes his creative energy and ideas) and
- The Jam at Judson Church 1999-2001 (founded by Bill Jacobson, who brought the jam to the center of the Village and participates whenever in town.)

Thank you to all who bring the wonderful energy that makes this event.
