Part 3 of i-Dance Japan 2025 will be in a celebratory mood, also making the 25th anniversary of CIco.
Although it is a short event of just 3 nights and 4 days, it is full of interesting approaches, from the basics of contact improvisation to an art form that weaves together the oriental spirit and body.
We will be holding a [Photo and Video Contest].
We ask for photos and videos taken during Part 3, and we will ultimately create one video work. Entries will be accepted after the end of Part 3, and a selection will be made. Please note that each participant will appear in the footage and images. The video work will be posted on the website at a later date.
[Let's take photos/videos of CIco!]
During the workshop of CIco, there will be a time for you to take photos/videos of us dancing! You can do this with your smartphone, camera, or even a sketchbook. Try filming the improvised dance and music as a record and as a metamorphosis into a new art. A 3 nights, 4days CI camp at Jisso Youth Travel Village It may be just the right amount of time, or maybe not enough, but being in Jisso in the deepening autumn and playing CI, I think it will be an amazing experience.
Each day, guest artists will lead a warm-up session for your body and mind, with yoga, qigong, pilates, meditation, and more, to help you start your day off right. If you want to sleep in, you can prioritize sleep, or take a walk around the area and enjoy the morning hours.
There will be an intensive course by CIco (Chico Katsube and Shoko Kashima), as well as classes on the themes and topics that each artist is researching. Please refer to this page for details on the content.

場を解放して、自由に踊ったり音楽を奏でたりする時間です。試作、熟成、発見のチャンス。この時間は講師的な存在はありません。 誰かと一緒でも、ひとりでも、場を共有しながら自由に踊ってみてください。空間のために音楽を奏でたり、歌ったりするのもまたよしです。 This is a time to open up the space and dance and play music freely. It's a chance to experiment, mature, and discover. There are no instructors during this time. Dance freely, whether with someone or alone, while sharing the space. It's also good to play music or sing for the space.
