About me
Jesse Klein is a certified Contact Beyond Contact (CBC) dance instructor who has led workshops across the globe. His love for dance and movement began early, with formal ballroom training at the age of 12 and continued throughout his high school years. In his early 20s, he discovered Contact Improvisation, which opened new dimensions of somatic exploration, connection, and presence on the dance floor.
Jesse's background includes extensive training in yoga, meditation, and Chi Kung, which deeply inform his approach to movement and teaching. He sees dance as far more than physical expression—it's an energetic, emotional, and relational experience. His workshops honor the subtle interplay of energy, the psychological dynamics between partners, and the collective intelligence of the group.
With a grounded yet intuitive style, Jesse creates spaces where authentic expression is welcomed and supported. His facilitation invites deep connection—with oneself, with others, and with the greater whole—leaving participants with a lasting sense of unity, trust, and gratitude.
