Hello everyone!

We are very happy to announce the 13th Summer Jam of Arts Festival, focusing on Contact Improvisation, BMC, Physical Theatre, Thai massage, Ensemble improvisation, Voice Impro as well as many jams, live music, excursions and plenty of delicious food with our chef Anulya!

We will be hosted in a really unique medieval villa surrounded by ancient trees and huge private green space!! In a cool and fresh area on the side of Cimini mountain at Capranica-Sutri area at 400mt from the level of the sea and very close to the lake of Vico (510mt from the level of the sea).

The aim of the retreat is to offer participants the opportunity to study Contact and somatics, exploring the energy and the wisdom of the body; living new experiences and discovering new ways of perceiving, being and living in a more respectful and genuine relationship, in harmony with nature, with ourselves and the others.

IMPORTANT: The lessons are structured to be accessible to all levels: completely beginners and advanced can learn and improve own skills, dance, knowledge, technical and improvisation abilities.

To participate to the festival you don’t need to be dancers or artists since the idea of the Jam of Arts festivals is aimed to people who want to experiment with arts and movement, regardless having or not prior experience. The goal is to explore different skills and capabilities that exist within us, study various disciplines and enjoy!

A few informations about the location. The villa that host us is a  really unique medieval place surrounded by secular trees and huge private green space!!
