Expectation challenging. Physically affirming. A celebration of human joy.
Connection in dance has been historically been hard for me, i.e. will this person want to dance with me and will they enjoy themselves if they do? The blindfolded contact experience helped me get out of my head and feel what contact improv could be like.
I came burnt out and left feeling energized. This class gave energy that my body and mind needed and left me with greater presence.
It wasn’t what I expected. It was better!
I discovered how everyone’s being can feel like my beloved in my arms. What matters is the nurturing and heart exchange. I have that to give to everyone. The blindfold taught me that.
Profound experience. I found myself thinking "wow" this person I'm dancing with is so beautiful over and over, despite not knowing who these people were. Eye opening and heart opening.
