Customer Reviews
Feels like being in the studio
This podcast reminds me of the talks about life, connection, and soul that feel very meaningful to my time in the studio. Especially with the lockdowns, I miss those talks that are apart of the dance community when I go into a dance studio. Thanks to the hosts for being this sense of spirit into the conversations. I’m excited to see where this podcast goes 🤗
It’s a new standard.
WWDUD? What would dance union do? This is a real question I ask myself as an artist, performer, dancer, choreographer, community builder, supporter, fan, human. KEEP ON! With the real conversations, killer guests, total vulnerability. Subscribe now, or be ignorant forever.
Desperately needed discussions in dance
If you’re needing something more than interviews with ballerinas, look no further. Melanie and J are able to have fun, crack jokes, and at the same time discuss deeply important topics in and around the field. If dance can change and heal the world, The Dance Union will be leading us.
