    Abstract

    We adopted a phenomenological approach, directly engaging with the community of practce of the form of movement under study. We discuss some methodological approaches that we considered in investgatng the lived experience of a heterogeneous group of Contact Improvisaton (CI) practitioners. We delineate how such a system of movement could provide a unique example for the analysis of the interpersonal dynamics between movers with a different degree of expertse, re-tracing some common paths towards the acquisiton of interkinaesthetc knowledge.
