    14. How I Became the Teacher I Am Today - and Why I'm Entering My Master Teacher Era

    What does it really take to become the teacher you're meant to be? In this deeply personal episode, I'm taking you back to where it all began - from a little girl who simply loved to move, to the journey that led me through twenty years of study, performance, teaching and, ultimately, the creation of the D.E.V.I. Method™. This is the story of how dance transformed me, what I've learned from mentoring hundreds of dancers around the world, and why I believe we need a different way of practicing, learning and growing as artists. If you've ever wondered how the D.E.V.I. Method™ was born - and why this feels like the beginning of a much bigger vision - join me for this inspiring conversation. 🪷 If you're ready to become the artist your dance is asking you to be, applications for the inaugural D.E.V.I. Method™ Mentorship & Certification Program are now open. Find all the infos here: https://www.lamiabarbara.com/devi ⇢ Are you ready to stop collecting movements and start cultivating an embodied artistic practice? 🪷 The D.E.V.I.
