Summary: When we think our dancers are being lazy or don't care, we tend to yell for full out and push for more energy because we assume the dancers aren't giving us their full effort. But what actually is effort? How do you know what someone else's 100% effort actually looks like? Today's episode was inspired by Coach Alaina who sent me a voice note that really got me thinking. In the episode, we'll talk about effort, what full out really means, and how to help your dancers give more effort in practice. We'll also dive into answering what's really going on when your dancers appear to be lacking effort.

113. Don't Just Insist on More Effort From Your Dancers, There Is a Better Way

You train extensively as a dancer, but what about mental training? Have you ever trained your mental skills like confidence, focus, or resilience? When you tune in to Passion for Dance, that mental training is precisely what you get. You can learn from a sport psychology expert who understands the dance industry and can teach you how to elevate your performance and truly thrive on and off stage.

Welcome to Passion for Dance, where your host, Dr. Chelsea, will bring the science of sport psychology into the dance studio. Each week, you will learn actionable strategies and new mindsets to build happier, more successful dancers.

Dance teaches us to push through the pain to reach our goals, and we are used to criticism, tears, bleeding toes, and sore muscles. But now, psychological research has taught us more about mental health and resilience than ever before, and it's time to change our industry for the better. Being a dancer teaches us critical life skills, but that doesn't mean we have to suffer before we can build ourselves back up. Dance can teach us self-discipline, teamwork, confidence, grit, and resilience without destroying our self-esteem.  

The path to personal growth is full of joy, self-discovery, and challenging roadblocks, but we don't have to figure it out alone. This podcast is for all of us to connect, learn, and share our passion for dance with the world.
