Peak Performance

Have you ever seen someone effortlessly achieve something that feels totally out of reach for you? Like, they're making it look easy while you're struggling just to get started? That's peak performance. It's when someone is absolutely crushing it, operating on a level that seems almost superhuman.

This phenomenon isn't limited to real life!
In the world of video games, peak performance can feel like pulling off an insane move that makes you look like a pro gamer. It's like channeling the superpowers of your favorite character and dominating the competition.
You after scrolling through Instagram for an hour: feeling like a slug; Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson crushing a workout while filming a movie and building a business empire. Peak performance unlocked.

Ghost Performer

A ghost performer is someone who fills in for a type of performance or routine if a member isn’t available it could be someone random or someone that a choreographer would know of with the same skill set that would be used in the routine or simply a hired stunt double or someone who can execute a role in a performance when needed.
A ghost performer is needed due to one of our members not being available for our circus routine.

performative male

A cisgender heterosexual man who, out of necessity, imitates and adopts styles and trends associated with a female audience in order to attract and draw the attention of his target or social group. This style or subgenre arises from the man's imperative to fit into a society that no longer shares the prevailing beliefs, forcing him to share, use, and propagate, albeit superficially, alternative trends.

The general archetype is a man who reads feminist literature or female authors, consumes music outside the established niche, wears clothing in soft tones or from alternative brands, drinks matcha or similar beverages in bistro cafes, uses tote bags, and brags of his "open mind."

The archetype is constantly changing and depends on what is globally perceived as acceptable.
I didn't know that wearing wire headphones and drinking and ice latte was a common performative male conduct.
