Contact Improvisation: An Intuitive, Non-Verbal and Intimate Dialogue: Itay Yatuv at TEDxBGU

Artistic director of the Hakvutza Dance School in Jaffa, Tel Aviv, Itay has been practicing and internationally teaching Contact Improvisation for over 10 years to professional and amateur dancers. He trained as a contemporary dancer in New York, Italy and Israel. Choreographing independently, Itay has lead many international projects of improvisational performances. For the last 3 years, Itay has been investigating the connection between the principles used in Contact Improvisation and infant development, both motor skills and in the way an infant physically communicates with his or her parent.
