You can pass the data explicitly and in storyboard that is with the prepareForSegue call.

-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender{
    if([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"ContactsViewControllerSegue"]){
        ContactsViewController *cvc = (ContactsViewController *)[segue destinationViewController];
        cvc.contacts = self.contacts;
        cvc.delegate = self;
    }
}

For a full tutorial check out this website.

To programmatically trigger the segue you can check the Apple Docs, but here is their example on orientation change.

- (void)orientationChanged:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    UIDeviceOrientation deviceOrientation = [UIDevice currentDevice].orientation;
    if (UIDeviceOrientationIsLandscape(deviceOrientation) &&
        !isShowingLandscapeView)
    {
        [self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"DisplayAlternateView" sender:self];
        isShowingLandscapeView = YES;
    }
// remainder of example omitted....
}

So you will trigger the segue when shaking stops, and then prepare the next viewController in the prepareForSegue method.
