Learning to be fearless

Yes, so like I said, improv last night was quite awesome. If I’m being honest, it does feel like every class for the past few weeks has been better than the one before. I honestly think that part of it is that I’ve learned to be more and more fearless. I might dive into a scene or exercise not knowing what the heck is going on, but I’m more likely now to stick with my character or in the scene and ride with it. Before I would have broken out of character or looked around for help. Not so much these days.

I think I’m also making cool character choices. There’s a good mix of high and low status character stuff. I play around. I’ve learned to keep physical action in the scene going, even if I’m not speaking. Yes, there’s a lot going on. I’m learning!

I’m quite proud of how far I’ve gotten in this short time. I feel like I’ve got a lot of potential waiting to be unleashed. I never really expected this path to lead anywhere, so I just did it for fun. I’m still doing it for fun, but I never would have imagined that I’d get so much damn enjoyment from it. So much joy comes out of playing in a scene that just works. When everyone’s choices and decisions synchronize nicely such that the scene flows, that’s a magic that just can’t be found any other way. So awesome.
