  • S3. 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!

    • S3. E2. Chocolate, Cold Showers & Cocaine

      We are talking HIGH performance in this episode. If you have ever wanted to know how to sustain motivation this is your episode!

      If you have ever had big dips in your motivation and struggled to keep going then this could be the reason why and it comes from the depths of neuroscience.

      I truly believe this episode is one of the most important I will bring you to kick-start a new level of learning and self-direction.

      For decades I have been studying the link between performance on and off the dance floor and mindset.

      Over the past week, I have been devouring #Hubermanlab podcast and found one of my most exciting discoveries on...

      -Why do we lose motivation and drive?

      -How can we avoid the pitfalls of burnout

      -Why hitting goals can have a negative effect [LISTEN TO THIS] unless you understand this one thing about your brain

      -The relationship between dopamine and PAIN is not just pleasure

      -Chocolate, cold showers, and cocaine...well, what else is there to say?

      -A very, very, VERY important non-reward based idea to help you unlock the natural way of keeping the momentum going

      You'll get more from your dancing and life performance after you become more conscious of the content in this episode.

      I am happy to be able to share this with you.

    • S3. E1. Thought, Purpose & Intelligent Action

      In a world fuelled by fear now more than ever, I want to bring some messages that help you and I understand ourselves better.

      Why? The antidote to fear is understanding the connection of thought and purpose applied with intelligent action.

      The more we understand ourselves the greater the potential that can be released.

      We need leadership to help us get beyond uncertainty and doubt and that starts with you recognizing how you operate.

      Thought and purpose when aligned will help you find meaning in a dark world.

    • How I Train Mindset for Practice [with my student Bianca]

      [Special edition] I wanted to share some really important reminders for us all to keep focused, calm, and to up our game.

      We cannot control the governments or what is happening outside - but we have a CHOICE on how we respond.

      I spend about 80% of my time teaching technique, mechanics, movement, dance feeling, expression.

      The other 20% is the most powerful but I don't often get the opportunity to delve into some of the mindsets of top performance.

      Often it is because many dancers just want to enjoy dancing at a social or medalist level.

      But to be your truly greatest self requires something else. 

      You've got to be able to push out of the weak-minded laziness we all have and forge ahead to demand the most from your dancing each and every day.

      Now, the good news...you don't have to go hard or go home...you need to be consistent and HERE IS HOW.

      Here is a sneak peek into the mindset-side of training my young student Bianca on her way to DanceSport amazing-ness!

      In a previous lesson, I discussed the power of compounding your time, and dancing a little bit each day is more powerful than a lot in one go.

      But she was tested by her own inner resolve to do the work during arguably, one of the hardest times for a dancer to go through.

      Lockdown. No partner. Stuck at home. For almost 2 months.

      Thankfully, we have online lessons and an awesome partner Ewan to keep things moving.

      But it is the inner game that must be overcome!

      Listen in as I share how we as Professional dancer's made it through and what top performance demands if you want to be part of the top echelon in dancing.

    • ...Stop Teaching Your Partner (Partnership Success Talk)
      www.ballroommastery.tv - Are you guilty of doing ANY of these things and sabotaging your partnership? You may not even recognize what over 90% of couples both on and off the floor do WRONG.
      Over 20 years of dancing with the SAME partner has taught me a few what to do and what not to do, NOT TO MENTION THE STUDENTS WHO GET THIS WRONG. Please let me share my EARLY and LATER atrocious inability to communicate well and what I did and now what I see many, many partnerships fail at.
      By the way...let's chat about one of my biggest freakin' pet peeves in partnerships [you'll need to watch it for longer than 1 minute]
      I personally believe it why most partnerships just can't last and end in heartbreak, resentment and, bitterness.
      Through this discussion, we can all get better, be kinder and, just rock it out for longer!
      So if you'd like to know a few ways to...
      -Keep the passion alive
      -Not foster detesting practice
      -Avoid triggering each other in a negative way
      -Stop fantasizing about sending your partner to dance-hell
      -Actually, end up respecting and bettering each other [WOW!]
      Plus much more - then this is for you.
      In all seriousness though there is something I want you to do:
      Become aware of your actual inability to communicate properly and resolve to be better at it.
      Plan around your ineffective strategies for bad communication
      Which will end up making your communication better and your entire partnership because you're now aware of your poor communication and now making it better through an active process.
      CALL TO ACTION:
      1. FILL IN BLANK: C_______________ M_______________
      2. Sit with your parnter and figure out your C.M
      3. Deploy it for the next 30 days
      Please comment, like, and inconspicuously tag a dancing partner with a subtle *cough* "you may like this" type of share.

    • Dealing With Your Resentments [Yes, YOU]

      Common, be honest...we all feel resentment from time to time. Perhaps you resent your dance partner for being late, trying to make you feel inferior, or your coach for always holding you to a high standard or favoring someone else...Maybe you experience this deeply toward others who you feel are better, more talented, prettier, or further ahead than you.

      In this episode let's talk about what it means to be resentful and how to recognize it and the poison it brings because you are never really resentful are you? - because you're a "good" person, right?


      Deal with your resentments and become DANGEROUS and STRONG both on and off the dance floor.

      Learning to let go and not be weak. Training your mind to deal with being around people who are much better than you at things.

      Keep this in mind...Your pressing need to be liked by others does not make you a good person and it's crippling your success.

      Here's an extract from my Signature Coaching Program; message me if you'd like to know more...

      -Why you're being a punching bag for other people's opinions

      -The MEEK will not inherit the earth
      -Resentment is your connection to your dark side so you can learn this 1 powerful thing
      -What being a good person is about [it's not hiding your opinions and shying away]
