I am not a religious person at all, but I’m very spiritual.

And I am learning to follow what my higher power has planned for me, instead of letting fear and ego take the wheel.

It’s not always easy to let go of things. Especially those things you thought you really wanted.

But I’m here to tell you that it is okay to transition, and sometimes that is for the best!

In this final episode, #221, of the Dance Boss Podcast, I talk about my transition from online business coaching to public speaking and what that means for the Dance Boss Podcast. I get transparent about the privilege I have in order to make these transitions. And, I share the path my life is on now and my current interest in life coaching.

Being a dance teacher or studio owner, you want to do everything and be everything for your students.

You find yourself taking workshops and courses to learn as much as you can, so you can bring it all to them.

But many times it feels like you’re “pretending to teach” instead of actually teaching.

Well… I have a solution for you!

Ella Rosewood is the creator of Crelata, “fun and sequential on-demand dance classes for kids, designed by dance education experts.”

And in episode #220 of the Dance Boss Podcast, we sit down to dissect her business. We talk about her early journey, the steps she took to bring her business to life, and how we can bring dance into the classroom more.

Every dancer is different. Every dancer’s needs are different.

A great way to find out what your specific body needs, is through genetic testing.

And for dancers and athletes, DanceRX is bridging that gap between science and dance.

DanceRX is “a health and wellness resource to enable and support the advancement of the dancer’s education through a personalized experience,” and today I get to sit down with the woman behind the idea, Sarah Haslock-Johnson.

In episode #219 of the Dance Boss Podcast, Sarah and I dive deep into the journey she took from idea to actualization. We also talk about the power of networking, challenges Sarah faces in business, some 5-year goals for DanceRX, and much more.

The world needs more dance bosses, and that all comes down to being a leader.

Being a leader in your classroom or studio, in your online dance business, and in your personal life.

We need more dance bosses to bring more people into dance. To remind us that dance is not just for performance, but also just for the sake of dancing.

In episode #218 of the Dance Boss Podcast, I sit down with Natalie Orr, dance teacher and coach for dancers. We talk about what it means to be a leader, the importance of curiosity and exploration, what a coach really does, and so much more. 

I also challenge you to think about what you need to give yourself permission to do. And DM me and Natalie on Instagram @erin.pompa and @nataliedanza to let us know!

Do you feel like you’re always putting out fires in your dance business?

You’re always finding issues and creating solutions. And you’re missing out on valuable teaching/coaching time.

If this is you, then it’s probably time to create some boundaries and policies that will actually work for you and your goals.

In episode #217 of the Dance Boss Podcast, I dive into the what, why, and how of getting out of the “putting out fires” rut, and stepping into teaching classes from your zone of genius.

In life, we teach people how to treat us. From spouses to children to parents to friends to coworkers, the list is endless. And dance students and studio staff are no different. 

In episode #216 of the Dance Boss Podcast, part 1 of a 3-part series, I dive into creating sustainable boundaries and policies for your dance business.

Are you a dancepreneur who is having a hard time raising your prices?

You want to serve your community and make sure everyone has access.

And you’re so used to working with the bare minimum and being the “starving artist.”

But when you look at the life you want to live, the life you are working toward, that mindset doesn’t actually align with it. 

You wonder, “will my community still trust me, if my program is expensive?’

In episode #215 of the Dance Boss Podcast, I sit down with Cynthia Paniagua, dancer, choreographer, and dance educator, and we dive into just that.

We talk:

• Learning to feel worthy and understand value
• Mindsets Cynthia had to shift to build her dance business
• The importance of having clarity
• Working through imposter syndrome and having courage

Have you heard of dance movement therapy?

Before talking to Erica Hornthal, CEO of Chicago Dance Therapy, I had no idea what it really was, but I had so much fun deconstructing her business and I know you will benefit from this conversation.

In episode #214 of the Dance Boss Podcast, Erica and I discuss her online dance business, how it started, and how it has shifted. 

We talk: 

• How Erica got into this work and how she knew she was on the right path
• Meeting community needs instead of using your own judgment
• How COVID affected her business and shifted her perspective
• “Balancing” being a mom with running a business
• And Erica’s new book, Body Aware

Today I am sharing a training workshop I did for DSO Connect in the summer of 2020. 

My presentation was originally called “systemizing your dance classroom,” but as I listened to it, I realized that it was really about teaching with intentionality. 

In episode #212 of the Dance Boss Podcast, I dive into what it means to be a dance educator, not a dance teacher, differentiating instruction, and creating lesson plans to foster your student’s needs. It is value packed with actionable steps you can use to help make your classes meaningful.
