Sports Psychology & Dance

Summary:

In this episode of The Wellness Hood, we’re joined by the incredible Jeevi Pillai, a sports psychologist and dance fitness instructor with a passion for combining movement and mental wellbeing. From her lifelong journey in dance, spanning styles like Ballet, Bharatanatyam, Hip Hop, and Reggaeton, to her extensive work with athletes across sports like Sailing, Netball, Gymnastics, and more, Jeevi’s approach is all about pushing boundaries and unlocking human potential.

We dive into her signature Afro with Jeevi (AWJ) Afro dance fitness sessions, where joy, connection, and freedom take centre stage. Jeevi shares how her experiences, including her travels through Africa, have shaped her unique practice. We also explore her work with The DARE Platform, where she supports athletes in achieving peak mental performance through the principles of sports psychology. Whether you’re an athlete, a dancer, or simply someone interested in enhancing your own well being, Jeevi’s insights and practical tips will inspire you to take your mental and physical health to the next level.
