Fall East Coast CI Jam
October 14-18, 2026
at Claymont Society in Charleston, WV
We are excited to invite you to the 2026 Fall East Coast Jam. Our beloved, co-created biannual contact improvisation retreat is now in its 39th year! This five-day retreat is a jam-focused exploration of the practice of CI and is full of dancing, delicious food, and connecting with old and new friends. The retreat takes place at Claymont Retreat Center, a historic property in the Shenandoah Valley with beautiful trails, an octagonal barn with a large dance floor, and a spacious wood-stove sauna above a natural spring.
