                        29th Annual Breitenbush Contact Improvisation Jam!Hello friends,

We hope you can come to the Breitenbush Hot Springs Retreat Center in Detroit, Oregon.
The dates are March 4th-March 12th, 2010.

We'll have open dancing on a great wood floor, be surrounded by multiple hot springs and a steam house that will soothe your muscles, and be nourished by three vegetarian meals per day.

Cabins are shared in this Mount Jefferson Wilderness Resort. $660 includes the room and board, the Jam, and a Conference, with the facilitator to be announced. $780 will include all of the above, plus a bathroom in your cabin.

The $125 non-refundable deposit is due by February 8th, and the full balance is due by February 22nd. Spaces fill quickly so send in your deposit well before February 8th to guarantee a spot.

Cheaper and half-time options: A limited number of 'dorm cabins' are available with 4 beds per cabin instead of the usual 2 or 3 beds per cabin. These are $530 all-inclusive. A limited number (usually about five) half-time spots are also available. (We do have to match up first-half attendees with second-half attendees. This usually works out fine but the earlier you reserve by sending your deposit, the better.) Cost of half-time attendance: if you are in a regular cabin, it's $345. We can't guarantee placement for half-timers in cabins with bathrooms or dorm cabins, but we can try. Half-time dates: 'First-halfers' attend March 4th to lunch-time on the 8th. Second-halfers attend afternoon of the 8th till the 12th.

More details about the Jam: You choose when you want to be in the studio; everything is optional. There will be about 5 conference sessions that will be facilitated, facilitators yet to be announced. There is lightly facilitated Contemplative Dance Practice each morning for early risers, before breakfast. Each morning after breakfast there is a short warm-up led by people who sign up. Most evenings there are performances by people who sign up: 10 minutes max, 40 minutes maximum total. Visit our Breitenbush page at our website. From there you can also read reflections on the 2006 Jam by 25th anniversary attendees Ray Chung, Nancy Stark Smith, Danny Lepkoff, Steve Paxton, Karen Nelson, K.J. Holmes and Scott Smith.
