30 Seconds to Stand Out: How to Introduce Yourself Like a Pro

Listen Later

 

In this episode, we're breaking down why your introduction matters more than you think, the three critical mistakes dancers make (lack of projection, generic details, and nervous fidgeting), and exactly how to craft an intro that makes judges remember you. Whether it's a virtual submission, a semifinal introduction, or showing up at finals, you'll learn how to stop blending in and start showcasing who you really are.

In this episode, we cover:
  • Why your intro is your first impression to the judges and how it can set you apart in a room full of talented dancers
  • The three biggest mistakes that make intros forgettable and how to avoid them
  • Real examples of intros that stand out: buying your own home at 24, volunteering monthly, having a unique career
  • The exact homework to do: brainstorm 5 to 10 unique things about yourself, film yourself practicing, and schedule weekly reps
  • How to show up with presence, projection, and confidence, even if you're faking it at first

    • Your homework: Write down 5 to 10 things that make you unique. Film yourself practicing your intro. And schedule time to practice it weekly, just like you would a routine.
