Dominic Prud’homme : "Movement and dance have always been at the heart of my life. As a child, I was deeply drawn to martial arts, especially Taekwondo, where I cultivated discipline, precision, and a deep respect for the body. This early relationship with movement awakened my sensitivity to grace, beauty, and the quiet power of controlled gestures."
"Later, in a very different setting, I reconnected with my body on the dance floors of raves and after-hours events. During this intense and liberating period of dance, I rediscovered the joy of moving freely—without structure or judgment—a raw and joyful form of expression that reignited my love for dance."
"And yet, something was still missing: connection to others. In 2007, I discovered Contact Improvisation, a true turning point. This practice allowed me to unite movement, listening, touch, spontaneity, and human connection in a dance that is alive and deeply embodied. It became an essential language for me—a space for sensitive exploration, ongoing learning, and genuine encounter."
"My path is also deeply rooted in care. Trained in both Swedish massage and aquatic bodywork, I learned to listen with my hands and to sense others beyond words. These somatic practices deeply nourish my way of teaching Contact Improvisation—with presence, attention, and compassion."
"Today, I teach Contact Improvisation as a living practice—one that weaves together playfulness, body awareness, and relational depth. I invite each person to explore their own movement, to develop their capacity for listening, and to enter the dance with curiosity, pleasure, and respect."
