Crystal Cyr/Image and Pilgrimage in Christian Culture, Flow concept....
I would definitely agree that people are sometimes "in the zone," or have a certain flow when they play sports. I am however not a gifted enough athlete to have ever felt flow when playing sports. However, I am a classically trained musician and have been singing in front of audiences since I was ten. I would definitely say that I have the same type of feeling when I am on stage. I always know I have had a good performance if I don't remember it. I always remember my musical mistakes, so if I remember nothing about the performance I would say I achieved that perfect flow in whatever piece I had sung. It is actually quite exhilerating to exit the stage and remember nothing. My most recent voice teacher always says to me during my lessons,"Stop thinking and just sing!" Its kind of like Nike's, "just do it," campaign.
