This trust exercise worked very well and I trusted my partner enormously because I knew her quite well except it was at some times very difficult because I could hear the people all around me and I got frightened that I would crash into them but I kept my eyes shut because of the instructions that were given to me. There was some times where we misunderstood each other because the signals were sometimes done to many times making us turn around several times and doubting each other a couple of times. Jenna and I trusted each other once the exercise was started but in the before the exercise stared Jenna had trouble trusting me because she of my usual behavior. I on the other had did not care as much as here if I would bump into another person or a table, but Jenna pulled through and it worked actually quite well.
The reason we did this exercise was because we needed to build trust in each other for future projects that we would do in drama. This exercise is very important because we basically put our eyes in theirs and trust them to guide us if we were blind.
We also did a trust exercise in which we put trusted 2 people to catch us when we fall which I thought worked quite well except the only difficulty was that it was quite hard to fall right on command. But we had to fall like a tree so it would be easier to fall and catch. I trusted the people in my group but they sometimes were caught off guard and they once didn’t catch me but they did try to but I slightly touched to floor.

The reason we did these trust exercises were because if we were ever to do such a thing a project we could trust the people to catch us.
