www.ballroommastery.tv - Get free Ballroom and Latin dance training plus more!
--------------
Dancers are artists who use their bodies to express themselves and tell stories through movement. They are often highly trained and skilled in various styles of dance, such as ballet, contemporary, hip-hop, or traditional cultural dances.
As a dancer, you may find inspiration and motivation from the Chinese parable of the farmer. This story illustrates the power of perspective and how our perceptions shape our reality.
This parable teaches us that life is full of unexpected events and that our interpretation of those events shapes our perception of the world. As a dancer, you face challenges and setbacks in your artistic journey, but you also experience moments of joy, fulfillment, and inspiration. By adopting a mindset of openness and curiosity, you can find meaning and purpose in your experiences, and use them as opportunities for growth and learning.
Listening to this podcast can help dancers cultivate a mindset of resilience, creativity, and self-expression, and learn from the wisdom of others who have walked the path before them. Whether you are a professional dancer or an aspiring one, this podcast can inspire you to keep dancing, keep exploring, and keep discovering the beauty and power of movement.

December 02, 2021S3. E5. The Coach Who Celebrates You LOSING!
Extremely counter to most coaching advice but I NEED YOU TO LISTEN UNTIL THE END.
In my personal dance experience LOSING was the greatest gift because I understood HOW TO USE IT.
Most dancers never learn how to turn negative events, like losing, into POWER.
There's a saying I love "if you can't take the knocks you don't deserve to win."
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN...
There is ALWAYS someone better than you, even if you're #1 in the world - what does this mean for you?

How to turn a loss into your greatest advantage

Why do people quit when faced with losing or after losing

How feeling embarrassed is a gift for your improvement
Let's unpack this as it will truly help you reframe your perceptions about winning/losing your inner and outer game of dancing.

November 04, 2021S3. E3. Rhythm
Want to know how to KNOW the good is coming to you in the darkest moments in your life?
You will never be fully ready for that next level but you will attract moments that can change everything - how do you be AWARE of this?
Recently I was in a dark place but because of this lesson, I knew brighter days were coming.
It's NOT only about positive thinking, positive attitudes, or limiting beliefs - this is far more than that.
There is a rhythm to things and if you're aware of this idea it will help you in the depths of despair.
Let us examine a few beliefs and also attraction is working all the time in your life for the good, bad and indifferent.
What I will share...
How you attract and/or repel people, opportunities, and circumstances in your life

What the law of rhythm is all about

What separates winners [it's not winning more than others]

Why you can feel chaotic, confused, low in confidence in new situations like competing or medal tests

What manifesting your highest self can actually mean in a real-world sense
I hope you enjoy this lesson with me!
