The Mirror Of All Courtesy

Tonight we started off with isolation of certain body parts. We would tense them and then relax them. I enjoyed the part when we explored all the different movements our body parts can make. It was easy when we focused on one part of the body (the hand for instance) and then moved it in every way. To be aware of movement and how to move is key in acting.

After a while of this we moved on to mirroring. I'm not the biggest fane of mirroring, but that's ok. I started of with Diane and we did simple things, mostly moving the hands and leaning. It was ok but it wasn't challenging. I didn't feel a very strong or deep connection with her.

I felt extremly connected with I moved to Troy. Although, the connection was lost as we progressed. The instant attraction was incredably strong for me, it was rather intense, but like I said, we lost it. Or maybe lost it.

Moving on to Michael we were told to get more creative. We did lots of wierd movements on the floor, and trying to get it just right was difficult, but I was looking for a challenge. Our end pose was one of us covering our faces, like we were ashamed.

My last partner, Johnny, was the best mirroring experience I had tonight. We started in a wierd pose, but we progressed to a sort of love story. Here is how I saw it: we had an instant attraction, kind of like love at first sight. Only, we were both afraid to have it go anywhere. We sort of flirted and had fun with it but then we got hurt somehow. I remember this particular portion happening like this: One of us blew a kiss, and the other caught it and threw it away. Then we fell and burried our faces in the floor. We gave up on each other. It was a super extreme story and it took a lot out of me. I was drained.
