A Dancer's Mindset

Show Notes

Hello Everyone!

Today I am joined by my amazing friend Suvi Honkanen, Say hello Suvi!

We are talking about Summer schools. Is this something we should be doing?

Do we all have to do this?

In Ballet we feel so much pressure to do everything by the book, do everything just as everyone else does and how society tells us.

Let's discuss why that's not true and you can still achieve your dreams whilst carving your own path!

Follow and Subscribe! Thanks for listening :-)
