Maayan is a dancer, choreographer, video creator, motion designer, and Contact Improvisation
teacher based in Cologne, Germany. She believes that dance is a powerful form of communication
and energy exchange between people, and that Contact Improvisation emphasizes the importance
of listening to oneself and others, fostering a sense of trust, awareness, and liveliness. In her work,
Maayan uses physical communication as a tool to explore social and interpersonal relationships,
and to challenge the boundaries of habitual behavior. She trained in contemporary dance at SEAD –
Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance and is currently studying Integrated Design at KISD – Köln
International School of Design. There, she is exploring innovative ways to combine dance with
design and technology, applying her extensive knowledge of filmmaking. Maayan also collaborates
with various artists on multidisciplinary projects, and has been teaching Contact Improvisation for
the past seven years in multiple settings, including occasional classes, workshops, and sessions
specifically for professional dancers.

Kontaktimprovisation als zeitgenössischer Kunstform, nach
freiberuflicher Arbeit als Maler, Musiker und Architekt.
Er unterrichtet mit besonderer Aufmerksamkeit darauf,
wie Menschen auch ohne spezialisiertes Training,
Vorwissen oder besondere Bewegungserfahrungen
einfach, spielerisch und mühelos miteinander
improvisieren können.
Both a creator and performer, she is engaged in various artistic collaborations and as a dancer for choreographers. She first encountered contact improvisation through her BA in Dance (2018), and has since continued the journey through many workshops, her own practice and at CI-festivals. She has facilitated contact improvisation at festivals and in dance studios in Denmark, Norway and Germany.
“What excites me about contact improvisation is playing with gravity, moving into the unknown, connecting with others and myself. In my workshops I want to nurture the participants’ curiosity and trust in their solo dance as an integrated part of the shared dance. Through playful scores, I like to invite exploration of unconventional movement qualities and nuanced ways of relating within the practice of CI.”
