Rhee Gold's DanceLife

Rhee Gold is passionate about dance education and the business of teaching dance. He is a pioneer in the field, launching the first business (and motivational) seminar for dance teachers in the mid-90s and is now the director of the DanceLife Teacher Conference and the DanceLife Retreat Center attracting hundreds of teachers and studio owners from around the world. Gold’s mission is to inspire dance people to appreciate the gift that dance offers all who experience it. He encourages teachers to be unique, make their own mark on the field and to have the confidence to follow the path that best suits their goals for success. His entrepreneurial and leadership skills have had a long-lasting impact on the dance community, he is the author of the Complete Guide to Teaching Dance, served as the publisher of Dance Studio Life magazine for 14 years and has served as the President of Dance Masters of America, the United Dance Merchants of America, the founding co-chair of UNITY and is now the Director of the International Dance Entrepreneurs Association, also known as I.D.E.A. When given the chance to “talk dance,” Rhee is all about it and that’s what this podcast is all about. We’ll crisscross everything about teaching dance from business to classroom success and we’ll definitely hit on the heart and soul of what being a dance teacher is all about.

Thanks, Rhee, for the reminder that self-care is so important. I am always putting others before me, and lately I’m feeling the results in my exhaustion and lack of brain space.
Nice doses of inspiration!

Hi Rhee! I love listening to your podcasts in between dancelife conferences. I haven't been able to attend since 2017 since having a baby. I was wondering if I could request more subjects related to teaching (all genres) since I"m just a teacher and not an owner. Maybe ways to challenge even your best dancers, creative classroom lessons, improve/freestyle activities, teambuilding, etc...for those of us who only teach. Thanks!
Love this man!!!!

These Podcasts make me so happy!!! My staff and I remind ourselves of Rhee's messages, mantras and perspectives on a regular basis, but listening to these Podcasts are so much more inspirational and rejuvenating than trying to recreate his words. So grateful for everything he does for us!!!
Such validation!

Rhee is the ultimate inspiration! As a dance teacher who is a mom of 2 young boys, I sometimes need validation that what I am leaving them to do on nights and weekends is “worth it”. Rhee gets that and he always says the perfect thing to snap me back into the reason why I continue to follow this passion. Great listen by a great person!
Love it!

I have been a studio owner for 28 years and my thoughts are always right in line with Rhee's. It is like Rhee is living in my head and expresses my thoughts so eloquently. It is always so great to feel like, "Yes, I HAVE been doing this right? I HAVE followed my heart and I HAVEN'T compromised and althought I may have lost a few customers along the way because I didn't compromise, I am better for it and I am attracting the people that are best for our studio". After being in business for so long, I do feel like I personally have a great deal of experience, but listening to the podcasts always teaches me something and inspires me, whether it is just to be at peace knowing I followed my heart and was on the right track, get a new idea (I am always a student at heart and can always learn a new way to do something) or if it is just a simple reminder (that is always needed) to enjoy the journey. Thank you so much for creating these inspirational podcasts. I have been reading Rhee's words for many, many years and now to hear his voice is another great additional element. It feels so personal and I can listen when I'm driving to the studio or just out for a walk. Excellent!!!
Love Love Love!!!

Excellent!

Rhee Gold is the voice in the back of my head every day, reminding me to be true to myself, be confident in my decisions and believe in myself and my studio. This podcast helps me keep my love of dance in the forefront of my mind, especially in the midst of competition and recital season! I’ve been attending Rhee’s seminars for years and this podcast is like a mini session at the Retreat Center every time I tune in. Thanks Rhee!!!!
