Ballerina
Type-Three Persona: Competitor, Kinesthete, Storyteller
Favourite play activities include:
- Competitive dance Brag-worthy athletic feats Martial arts
A Ballerina is a Type-Three Play Persona, combining Competitor, Kinesthete and Storyteller. A Ballerina stops at nothing to express themselves with movement. Perhaps they run long distances as a way of raising money for charity, or they do ballroom dancing competitively. Often a Ballerina is as much interested in telling their tale as in having the experience in the first place.
Reflects traits of type-two personas:

Athlete
Type-Two Persona: Competitor, Kinesthete
Favourite play activities include:
- Catch Football Running Wrestling Play-fighting Swimming
An Athlete is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Competitor and Kinesthete. An Athlete is your traditional sportsman or sportswoman, loving play as much for the opportunity to compete as to enjoy physical exercise. Often an Athlete doesn't care about the particular game at hand - they'll pick up a ball and kick it against the wall, wrestle with nearby friends, or run long distances against themselves or others. The attraction to competing and to movement is best kept in balance, so Athletes benefit from being encouraged to focus on both of these, rather than one to the expense of the other.

Bragger
Type-Two Persona: Competitor, Storyteller
Favourite play activities include:
- Poetry slams Short-story competitions Tells tales of bravado Campfire storytelling
A Bragger is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Competitor and Storyteller. A Bragger loves to tell stories of valour and and victory - particularly their own! Don't be put off, because a Bragger knows how to tell them, and sees the world in terms of the ebbs and flows of human successes and failures. While this can go too far, they may also show their persona through prolific writing or other creative narrative arts, and with that practice can come great expertise.

Dancer
Type-Two Persona: Kinesthete, Storyteller
Favourite play activities include:
- Dance Sports writing Mime Creating a journey stick
A Dancer is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Kinesthete and Storyteller. A Dancer uses their body to tell you about the world. They see all movement as change, a step in a wider narrative, intimate or grand. Watch what a Dancer says with their body, because they feel truths in the pressure on their skin that others miss only using their eyes and ears. They may also love to speak of physical experiences they've had, interpreting and retelling what others might only hold onto for a particular moment in time.
Combines traits of basic, type-one personas:

Competitor
Type-One Persona: Competitor
Favourite play activities include:
- Sports Gambling Play-fighting Expeditions
A Competitor is a basic, Type-One Play Persona. Motivated by an urge to do one better - often than themselves rather than other - a competitor enjoys all forms of competition. For a pure competitor, nothing is more important than winning a game or challenge - and they can get frustrated when others don't seem to be taking it seriously. A competitor is a great person to have on your side, and you can be certain they'll go the extra mile to ensure your team wins.

Kinesthete
Type-One Persona: Kinesthete
Favourite play activities include:
- Trampolining Running Tumbling Yoga
A Kinesthete is a basic, Type-One Play Persona. A kinesthete loves to move. Never happier than when their attention is on their body, they enjoy any physical activity that gets the blood pumping. Kinesthetes may enjoy sports for the experience more than the competition - and simply want to take movement to its furthest possible extent.

Storyteller
Type-One Persona: Storyteller
Favourite play activities include:
- Writing Lecturing Sharing experiences Imagining Role-Playing
A Storyteller is a basic, Type-One Play Persona. Enjoying sharing their experience (though not necessarily using words) a storyteller often uses play to form memories as much as for the experience itself. They love to imagine - and to share the product of their imaginings with their fellow travellers. On occasion this can tend towards storytellers seeming a little distant from the action, but be reassured that this is just them storing up information to relate back later!
