summary
Argues that incident management skills come from practiced coordination and mental simulation rather than theory, using 16th‑century dance reconstruction as analogy; shows specific failure modes — lifting a partner into an oaken beam — and the practical fix of rehearsing lifts in a pool to learn mechanics safely, and equates tabletop rehearsals to game days and failure simulations for services; highlights reading ambiguous manuscripts, evolving mental models during a La Volta lift, and practicing in large spaces before live runs.
