    Hello Everyone!



    Welcome back! Are you addicted to overthinking? I hear you. It can be so difficult to get yourself out of these psyches of overthinking and stress, feeling like it's taking you over completely, like you are totally alone and in a downward spiral.



    This doesn't have to be the case. Let's discuss!

    Ep.117 Fear of Performing. Dealing with Stage fright!

    Ep.117 Fear of Performing. Dealing with Stage fright!

    Hello Everyone, 



    Today I am joined by amazing Suvi Honkanen. We are talking about Fear of performing and the effects that can have on someone. 

    We all to some degree have a certain amount of fear and anxiety when we are about to perform If it is a good amount of nerves, we can use this to our advantage and not let it cripple us and destroy our performance. 




    We discuss our experiences
    The common theme between successful dancers 
    How to overcome fear of performing 
    How a different perspective can really help

    Ep.116 Coping with Injury. How to tell your teacher you have a problem.

    Ep.116 Coping with Injury. How to tell your teacher you have a problem.

    Hello Everyone! Welcome Back!

    Today we are going to be talking about telling your teacher you're injured and coping with injury. Being a ballet dancer is like being a race horse. When we are injured or in pain, it can feel soul destroying and absolutely terrifying to tell our teacher leading us to hide pain and be more chronically injured later which is not what we want.



    We are joined by Suvi my Vaganova buddy again in this episode. let's discuss!
