Dancing alone? Improvisation gets a lot harder when you have to mix in the mechanics of two people and then lead it.

I'm doing both. I was in a performance last week, my part was an improv. It was me, two other dancers, and three musicians: a guy on sax, a guy on xylophone, and a gal on the piano. All six of us were improvising, taking turns leading, following, &c. It was pretty cool.
