Salt Spring Island Contact Festival 2025


We are excited to announce the 7th annual Contact Improvisation Dance Festival will take place on Salt Spring Island July 25th to August 3rd, 2025. Home to the Hul’Q’Umi’Num and Sencoten speaking people of the Coast Salish nation where we are grateful to gather, dance, work, play and continue to tend to this beautiful land.
We will be gathering for 10 days of dance with a medley of classes, jams, silent jams,
music jams, authentic relating sessions, performance night, & nature exploration.
A place where dance, community, art, nature and self discovery all meet in a space of investigation, a time of play.
