close call almost accidental tickle in my voice lesson f/f

[saratk]

So if you're a singer you know that singing has a lot to do with muscles of the body for breathe support, etc. One main thing is having the muscles in your abs, rib chage, back, hips involved..I was in a voice lesson and a lot of times my teacher will stand up and feel her own sides etc to describe what needs to be done..a few times she's walked over to kind of show me....this week she walked over to me, got behind me and without warning put her hands right on my sides and was squeezing them, shaking them etc. to tell me I needed to be moving those muscles more...If I was more ticklish there, I definitely would have lost it. I almost considered faking it just so she would say something, but I didn't. She even put my hands on her to demonstrate and the devil on my shoulder did say "start squeezing", but I feel like I value my professional relationship with her does far outweigh trying to tickle her...just a funny story.

In real life, where most of us are the majority of the time hopefully, there are a lot of "what could have been" moments with this kink. As fun as it is to imagine things having gone a different way, it's almost always best to have let the moment go as it had. It depends on the relationship of the people involved, but it sounds like you did the right thing. That doesn't mean you can't replay the moment in your mind and imagine it the way you wanted it to go though. 🙂 It sounds like you have a proper, healthy sense of what's appropriate, and that's a good thing.

Love this kind of stuff 🙂

And I've been in that scenario, where the probability is high that something will tickle and it doesn't and it's a disappointment....

I'm also continually amazed by how common it is for an instructor of some kind to do something like that, placing a hand or hands on a part of the body that is typically very ticklish.....from what I understand, it happens in yoga A LOT....
