THE HARD CORPS PODCAST THE HARD CORPS PODCAST

Hi everyone and welcome back to the podcast! Welcome to SERIES 7!

for this weeks episode, I am joined by Shane Wuerthner, probably better known as Athletistry on Instagram.

We talk about his journey through professional ballet training, audition season and his experience of turning down a contract at the Royal Danish Ballet, and how this led him to go on to dancer soloist roles at Vienna State Opera, San Francisco Ballet, and Queensland Ballet, where he retired to settle down in Australia.

During lockdown Shane started personal training, which led him to where he is today, the creator of ‘Athletistry’ and online service for dancers to improve their range and quality of movement.

Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode and the final episode of the season before Christmas and a little holiday break.

*TRIGGER WARNING - BODY IMAGE*

This week I'm joined by Maeve Nolan (@maevenolan), a good friend of mine here in London. We talk about her training in Australia at Tanya Pearson, her move to Europe to study at The English National Ballet School and her transition into company life. We talk a lot about body image, body dysmorphia, finding where you fit in the industry among the standards we still see today.

Thank you Maeve for such an open and honest conversation.

Have a lovely holiday,

love Romy
