Flexibility: I have a weird range of flexibility; because my mind, body, and spirit all have very different ranges. Physically I can never seem to get very flexible, even when I was a gymnast in elementary school. The left side of my body especially refuses to become flexible. My mind is decently flexible, though I tend to get stuck into certain modes of thought that take awhile to break out of. I am most flexible spiritually, having adopted methods of meditation long ago and combining them with theatre I can twist and bend as much as I see fit.
Barely more flexible than this guy... I can at least touch my toes.... With slightly bended knee |
Creative Play: I have problems having fun just letting go and moving freely. I would rather someone tell me how to move and add my own spin to it than come up with my own movements completely. It takes a specific place in my mind to do something and not care at all what people think (Or even just what the random outcome could be).
Tension and Release: I am definitely holding. I can let go most parts of my body but where I hold tension has yet to completely let go. I am too tight in my jaw, neck, and back/shoulder areas, and the only place I would think to be too loose is in my core (As a singer I struggle with loose and free breathing while using my core as support to hold myself up). I honestly have yet to find a way to become very free and loose permanently but am able to become precise with a lot of repetition/practice.
