THE aim of the exercise, this new coach - a voice actor currently working for Cartoon Network - said, was to help us focus.
Here's what you do:
Pair up with someone in the group you aren't too familiar with and stand face to face with her. Between the two of you pick someone to begin moving (any part of his or her body) very slowly, so slowly that you'll only notice movement after say, 2-3 seconds. In the meantime both of you must hold a gaze, but the other person must detect which part of her partner's body is moving and mirror that.
Consider that peripheral vision is a powerful tool. Not only must you look straight through your eyes, towards the front, but you must also focus on those little things sitting on the sidelines and bleachers, awaiting the fateful moment when a single pair of eyes - they will
not ask much - will land upon them and stay there and whisper somehow, without any words, that they are important and loved and enjoyed, regardless of their size or looks.
Perhaps if we all took a step back and eyed the entire world instead of only what we wanted, we would really focus and see what was really important.
