My name is Lucia and I am an aerial dancer by profession. Each night, as the curtain lifts and the spotlight illuminates me, suspended metres above the ground, I am watched by hundreds of pairs of eyes. It's a sensation of voyeurism, a detachment from the world below. On one hand, there is a strange vulnerability, being scrutinized from every angle, every twist and turn of my body and with every descent and ascent. Yet, there's a sense of power, a control that pulses through my veins along with the adrenaline. рџ’ѓ

The rhythmic tunes inject life into my performance, yet, in those moments, everything becomes silent; the world narrows to an instant preview of time, where I alone command the breath of the audience 😮‍💨. There's something thrilling about that, being the puppet master in a theatre filled with expectant silence and anticipation. It's more intimate than any relationship I've ever had, this dance of voyeurism and control.

I was twenty when I first climbed the fabric, fear coiling around my heart. The higher I climbed, the tighter it squeezed. Once I was at the top, staring down at the ground far below, I experienced a moment of clarity. Yes, I was terrified, but I was also in control. I realized then that my own movements, my finesse, and my strength were the only things that separated me from a fall. And it wasn't the fall that scared me anymore, it was the thrill of the descent, the ecstatic release from gravity's hold. рџ’«

As time passed, the fear subsided, replaced with an exultant thrill. Yet, the feeling of being watched, studied, never went away. It started to grow on me, seeping into the essence of my performances. The intimate connection between the observer and the observed heightened. The sensation became akin to reading a steamy novel, where the experience is shared between the author and the reader through words and imaginations. Only in my case, it was through the twist of my body, the arch of my back, each gasp of the audience, and the stillness of the air around.

This sense of control is intoxicating, and it propels me to heights unimaginable. From the ground, it might appear that I'm just twirling, or spinning, or sometimes even flying, but up in the air, I'm more grounded than ever. I am the dancer and the dance, the observer and the observed, the fear and the fearlessness. I am the one controlling the strings, creating a symphony of movements that leave spectators breathless, and in doing so, gaining control over my fears, my audience, and above all, myself.

Aerial dancing, for me, is more than lifting my body off the ground. It's about those moments of voyeurism that blend into control, those instances of solitude in the crowded theatre, where I find a strange sense of connection with my audience. It's a game of shadows and lights, fear and confidence. And on that stage, under the spotlight, I am not just a dancer; I am an experience, an emotion, a thrill. And the knowledge of this mastery, this control, is the most euphoric sensation of all. рџ’«рџ’ѓ So, as I ascend, so do my spirits, each night, lost and yet profoundly found in this intimate dance of voyeurism and control. <a href=https://anussy.com/><img src="https://san2.ru/smiles/smile.gif"></a>
