    The art of booty shaking

    Welcome to Episode 3 - she's a little spicy! I came across a podcast conversation where a well known male choreographer argued that twerking should be banned because it 'crosses the line from sensuality into vulgarity.' We'll be unpacking this: We're chatting about who gets to decide which art forms are considered valid, why some dance styles are granted respect while others are dismissed and we'll also explore why women's bodies are judged differently in dance. Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to question our assumptions about art, legitimacy and creative expression. So grab your favourite drink and a seat and let's get chatting!

    The discomfort of being a beginner and what helps you keep going

    Welcome back to Episode 2! Creative living is a practise but starting something new as an adult can be uncomfortable. In this episode, we’re going to talk about the self-talk that helps you keep going when things feel awkward, why the word “cringe” can hold you back and I'll empower you with tools to make sure the learning environment is one that's right for you!
