Exactly my point - the Retreat I was on turned into just that - a 'grope' session, despite being led by expert facilitators. So it would need careful handling. Perhaps I should have rephrased that...

Sounds like an interesting idea for a London group (I nearly wrote 'grope') session. Get a good facilitator to lead it, then discuss how it might work (if at all) in organisations.

Not into Contact Improv directly, but do have experience of it in a Buddhist retreat centre in the UK. The problem, in my experience, is that, as we are sexual beings, there needs to be a lot of guidance from a mentor/mentors to strip us of those instincts. So it is very difficult to access the 'power of contact' outside a sexual psychoenvironment. Perhaps the 'path' is first to acknowledge the sexual instinct, and only then to learn how to shed it to access the 'Contact Power'?

I wonder if Contact Improv would be of benefit to corporations - it certainly changed my outlook on relationships. It seems to me that touch outside a sexual context has such power to release people from so much built up tension. Anyone else into Contact Improv here?

Hey you Londonites, I just saw this really fun group/festival and thought of you -perhaps some of you are already involved:
"Interesting Games Fest"

Hi all,
I am very excited having found this site and the group. I am a comedian and coach. I use improvisation extensively in my performances within corporations. I hope to meet you all soon.

My "duh!" -- I may be coming in May not March... easy to get confused when they both start with M. For sure in October... You can plan on that!

Bellina, I use improv for idea generation, and would be happy to show how I marry classic improv tools to the idea generation/innovation process. Gregg

Okay... I joined! And, if I am coming over in March, I will be happy to do a presentation, if appropriate. For sure in October.

Grin!
Sue
