Join us for fun, touching, and insightful moments as we explore topics like creating safe spaces for body and soul, and the importance of structure when giving feedback. We also dive deeply into the true essence of ballet. Spoilers: It’s not about high legs or big jumps. It’s about presence.Also, Bianca reminds us that the essence of ballet is available to everyone. Everyone.

    Find your True Personality and Rediscover Yourself with Anke

    In this inspiring episode of Broche Banter, we dive into Anke’s incredible journey. Once a shy, quiet girl, she now shines on stage, inspiring others to believe that it’s never too late to start something new. During lockdown, Anke secretly signed up for an online ballet course. Not even her husband knew, as she thought ballet was just for little girls. But ballet soon became a powerful form of self- expression and now she can’t be a day without at least 20 minutes of dancing. Anke’s story is also a story about partnership. While she took dance lessons, her husband learned to play the piano. Eventually, he composed a heartfelt piece for her solo at the IABF. Together, they expressed life’s ups and downs through music and movement. Join us as we explore the courage it takes to embrace self-expression and follow your passions.
