Fear

Take a photo of where you see or have felt fear: my dance studio

While I constantly have fun at dance, I’ve always been afraid of failure, or that my friends will watch me fail, and laugh. Furthermore, I compte at competitions, and even though I’ve been doing it for half my life, it never gets easier to go on stage in front of hundreds of people with the possibility and forgetting my choreography or falling out of a lift. In acro, we do plenty of challenging lifts, which sometimes go wrong, it takes a lot of practice in order to feel confident, and there is always the possibility of something going wrong, and hurting myself. This fear affects my actions, by allowing me to hold back, and not embracing my full potential, I know that I am capable of a lot more, but I’ve always been afraid of the outcome. During this exercise, I learnt that even the strongest people are afraid of something, no matter how small the phobia is, we must learn the face our fears.
