Today I'm speaking with Austin Telenko and Marideth Batchelor, and it's a good one! We attempted a very complicated Tik Tok wall art craft, and it involved painting, drawing, stabbing, and sewing.
I first met Marideth and Austin in NYC dancing at Broadway Dancer center, but you may know them as the Tik Tok duo Cost_n_Mayor!
Marideth is originally from Raleigh, North Carolina, where she began training at the age of 14! She has a strong foundation in street styles and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Dance Performance, Choreography, and Theory. While in NYC, she danced with AbstraKT Beings (Theresa Stone) and Shinsa the Collective (Bo Park) and was a cast member in “Dead Man’s Party” at Six Flags Great Adventure.
Austin Telenko, originally from Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, moved to NYC a few years ago. He is signed to Bloc and has worked a variety of jobs, including two different shows at Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH, a two-season run of Theresa Stone's Dead Man's Party at Six Flags Great Adventure as Dr. Fright, a Disney Brand Ambassador for the Frozen 2 Experience and more!
Over the pandemic, the duo decided to escape for two weeks to Marideths family home to get away from the epicenter in NYC. In an attempt to cure their boredom, they made their first Tik Tok video, and the rest is history! They currently have 1.5 million followers on Tik Tok (at the time of writing this... I'm sure it's even higher now!) and 234k on Instagram. Their original choreography has been danced by people worldwide, and because of the app, they have forged their own creative path in the industry. This episode is honestly the most fun I've ever had, and I think you will really enjoy it!
Follow Austin and Marideth on all social platforms @Cost_n_Mayor

Today I'm speaking with Meghan Wieboldt who is an amazing dancer currently living in Florida. I first met Meg dancing in NYC where I instantly picked her and her classic grey sweatpants out and said omg who is this girl she is so good!! During the pandemic she has been back home in Florida training, getting into acting and she went back to school. She is also a master gardener and I'm so excited to catch up with her and talk about all things dance and life.

Hello Everyone!
It's been a while since I did a mini Sunday episode but we are back on it and today I wanted to highlight my mom and give you a little personal glimpse into my life. I am SO lucky to have grown up with a dancer for a mom and a musician/science teacher for a dad. In this episode I share a bit about my first memories of dance and also reflect on how my mothers dance journey has given me some much needed perspective during this pandemic year (and scary big birthday year... ahhh the big 30). I hope you enjoy this episode. If you have a dance story that Involves your mom I would love to hear it! Send it on over to the instagram @dancersdoingstuff and while you're at it, give us a follow on youtube at Essentially Haley.
<3

Hello!
Today I'm speaking with the fabulous Maria Papakonstantinou. Not only is Maria is a professional ballroom dancer, she is in grad school, culinary school AND works for Fox News. Literally, how she does she do it all?! We had some great conversations and got deep talking about identity as a dancer how we wish we hadn't tried to fit into other peoples boxes when we were younger and had just believed what we had to offer was enough. While we chatted we made some marbled mugs so make sure you go check that out on the youtube channel 😉
Follow Maria at @mkpapakonstantinou on Instagram and all other social networks and make sure to tag @dancersdoingstuff on Instagram if you try any of our crafts.
