Ep.117 Fear of Performing. Dealing with Stage fright!


Listen Later

Hello Everyone, 


Today I am joined by amazing Suvi Honkanen. We are talking about Fear of performing and the effects that can have on someone. 

We all to some degree have a certain amount of fear and anxiety when we are about to perform If it is a good amount of nerves, we can use this to our advantage and not let it cripple us and destroy our performance. 


  • We discuss our experiences
  • The common theme between successful dancers 
  • How to overcome fear of performing 
  • How a different perspective can really help

    About Me Hello everyone! my names Isabella. 

    I am the first British graduate of the Vaganova ballet academy in Saint Petersburg Russia. I was a soloist working with the Mikhailovsky Ballet and Eifman ballet. Now I live in London as a full time coach

    Here, on my podcast I am sharing my passion with you all about the Vaganova technique amongst many other things related to ballet we all love.

    It's a hard industry so I am here to help with my insights and knowledge to make it a little easier for you all, as well as to hopefully entertain you with my content. Thank you for watching!
