Passion for Dance

185. Helping Our Dancers Mess Up Full Out, with Jennifer Bassage Bonfil


Listen Later

If you are a dance teacher who has ever struggled to get your students to go full out when they're learning, or if you've been saying the same cue, like, "Pull up," and they don't get it, today's guest is here to share a different approach with a lot of tangible ideas to try in your next class.

My guest today is Jennifer Bonfill, the Artistic Director of The Wooden Floor. She spent 13 years as a professional dancer and is now a truly exceptional teacher who has a genuine passion for dance. Jennifer believes that dance is more than an art form; it's a catalyst for personal growth and community connection. In this episode, we'll talk about why dance is the answer, the impact of somatic-based approach to choreography, and how life skills learned through dance will most likely show up outside the studio as well. Listen in to hear Jennifer's passion shine through. I know you'll come away with practical tips and inspiration for your next class!
