The 2026 Winter Olympics just concluded in Milano-Cortina, and like many people I was absolutely glued to my TV for the duration of the games. For anyone who has followed me for any length of time, this won't come as a surprise - I am a huge sports fan, and especially love the Olympic Games. 

There are so many parallels between amateur sport (especially the lesser known sports that only really get seen every 4 years at the Olympics) and the dance world. In this episode I highlight 5 incredible stories from the Olympics and the takeaways I think the dance world should be paying attention to.

Additional podcast episodes mentioned in this episode:
Episode 46: Six Lessons Dance Can Learn From the Olympics
Episode 109: Motor Imagery for Injured Dancers
