Seasonal Underscore at Dreaming Stone – Spring 2025

a Dreaming Stone & Asheville Jam Event

Spring 2025
Saturday March 8th, 1pm-5pm + potluck
Sliding Scale (NOTAFLOF) – $25 suggested

This underscore practice is geared toward participants with some experience with Contact Improvisation. The Underscore was described, graphically represented, and taught by Nancy Stark Smith, a co-creator and long-time Contact Improvisation teacher, seeking something beyond the “jam” that caters to individual experience. The Underscore is a structure for group improvisation that includes CI but expands our awareness of a shared journey and the innumerable connections that arise. Tevyn East, Director of Dreaming Stone, had the privilege to study with Nancy and sees this practice as a way to trigger and recognize “states of grace” and collective awareness.
