Contact Improv

Contact Improv is fun.
Like, it's weird, but it's fun.
It's interesting to see what kind of connections you make with people and see the kinds of choices they make with different people. I noticed that people who aren't comfortable with it tend to be more controlling. People with similar energies tend to have similar styles ( I keep channelling the things I learned in my last musical theatre class, leaving me with this pseudo ballet, pseudo interpretive flowy...thing that is sometimes replicated, mostly by girls) and people who have worked together on stage before fall into a rhythm easier.
I personally, feel like I still don't know how to 'listen'- it gets easier as time goes by, but I'm still nowhere near where I should be in that regard. I don't know precisely what it is- or more accurately, I don't know how to articulate it. It's like...I'm focusing too hard on focusing. The more I try to figure out where someone wants me to go, the direction is already gone. Sometimes I'll feel like I'm not contributing enough and try to offer something that's not reciprocated. It may be that I just haven't gouged out my relationships with other people enough. I've been told I may have problems just letting myself go. Whatever it is, it's something that will take time.
