Zuzanna’s embodiment journey began at the age of four with dance and has unfolded through martial arts, ballet, yoga, modern dance, and the Axis Syllabus. Deeply inspired by international teachers in contact improvisation and contemporary dance, she integrates movement principles from the Axis Syllabus and the structure of the Underscore into her practice and facilitation.
She is passionate about the interplay between body and mind—a thread she follows through her work in coaching, IT, and dance. Bridging analytical clarity with embodied presence, she continues to explore how movement can inform and transform ways of being.
Zuzanna finds joy and balance in co-creating spaces for dance and connection. She teaches and facilitates contact improvisation, co-organizes the Warsaw CI Flow and is the co-creator of contactimprovkohphangan.com, where she hosts immersive 4-5months long contact improvisation journeys at “Shared Ground Studios” on Koh Phangan, Thailand.

In the workshop we will dive into the world of researching our own movement patterns and breaking those, before we get into contact with one another.
We will focus on different Contact principles using the lens of the Axis Syllabus to refine our movements and create more potentiality in our moving structures. Exploring those alone, in specific patterns and in partner work shall deepen the understanding of the concepts.

We will dive deeper into the concepts of landing pads, tensegrety and how our bones are moving in the body. Asking questions like: How can meeting the floor be a soft experience? How biodynamics in movement can make our moves smooth and strong at the same time? How to be in my own flow while moving together with another? We will jump, roll, research, soften, listen to good music and have fun with great music and some chorographical patterns that will ease our way to the solo movement.
