Bootcamp Day #7 - You have to be Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable

Our final day in Atlanta started bright and early with a trip to Stone Mountain. We all climbed the mountain up to the very top. This was just the first of many mountains we are going to have to climb in our careers as performers - once you have climbed one, you have the confidence to tackle all the mountains in your path. Every single participant on the trip can walk away from this trip with the confidence that they are able to climb mountains.

After our mountain expedition we said good-bye to our vocal coach extraordinaire - Jason "JJ" Sylvain. He left us with some words of wisdom and encouragement to help us continue our journey as performers.

After the mountain we went to a two hour workshop with Brandon Thaxton at his studio Acting Up. We were able to work with some of his students and get some more coaching in our acting.

We spent the rest of the day with a trip to Cumberland Mall and then the movies to see Marvel's Ant-Man.

The evening is being spent packing and preparing for our flight tomorrow. We are all very sad to leave but excited to come home to share our experiences with everyone and continue on our journey as performers.
