Abstract	Contact improvisation can serve as a way to access new understandings of Bartenieff Fundamentals. Inherent elements of contact improvisation such as thinking and feeling bodily in the moment, sensitivity to activated weight along with weight sharing and bearing, flow, whole-body organization, and immediacy of embodied presence provide fertile ground for improvisatory investigations and experiences of the Fundamentals and their foundational concepts. The practice of accessing Fundamentals through contact improvisation supports a living, spontaneous, fully connected, immediate understanding of movement, and further develops understandings of the moving self in relation to others and the world. The author presents contact improvisation practices she uses with students to provide living experiences and applications of the Fundamentals. (ERIC).
