Coming up to the draft deadline is always stressful. I’m feeling apprehensive with what I have created so far, but hope everything will become clear soon. A lot has been going on for me in my personal life recently, all positive, but it means I need to focus on my time keeping more than ever.

Its taken me a while, but I’ve finally come round to the idea of one research project. The title I have in mind is something like:   Why do performers diversify and can they transfer knowledge from previous skills to enhance their learning of new skills I want to look at how learning one skill in dance may help or hinder learning a new one in circus and vis versa.   For example, I started dancing before I started circus. When I first started circus I already knew how to have stage presence, core strength and flexibility, which helped me when I started learning aerial hoop. I am really passionate about learning new skills and have done this all the way through my career. I believe this will give me a deeper understanding about what I do and ultimately help further my career. I would love to hear peoples opinions on this subject if anyone has any ideas or thoughts. 

Catching up on the Ethics More form lesson today was great. I had been stressing about what this would entail for the last couple of weeks and after listening, I feel it is accomplishable.  As well as this, having all my forms and data methods now means when I start module three, I will be ready to hit the ground running.
