BODY INVESTIGATE

The name and photos are pretty self explanatory, aren't they? We first ran into this figure in Ralph and Joan Collipi's Cecelia, a phase IV cha. The cue was, "she Body Ripple, he Investigate," and over a full measure, she did her thing, and he extended his arms, palms facing inward on either side of her (no touching), and slowly lowered into his knees. It is a kind of "caressing with the eyes."
