Reflection for Stage Combat

This week we started stage combat and im already in love with it. Stage combat is when you make a realistic looking fight but no contact is used. So far we learned:

• How to Knap
• How to slap
• How to Punch

yesterday, Karim and I made a skit. Where i was an owner of a company degrading Karim and firing him and thenn he gets angry and slaps me. It was very fun to reherse. But we needed to learn about Saftey. Saftey First, Saftey Last, Saftey Always. So we had to be about a meter and a half away from each other. A Knap is when you make the sound with your hands to sound like a slap.

What Went Well: 

We made it look realistic and we knew our lines. We also rehersed the slap and we didnt go over the top witht the insults.

Even Better If:

My reaction was a bit over the top and i think that is because im used to Melodrama at this point. Also When Karim was lifting his hand, He moved it down a bit too slow and without tention.

I will keep working on my sstage combat so i can improve.
