Everyone around the world is thinking about the pandemic, covid-19, and dancers have been affected by this crisis in unique and specific ways. Exploring how this complex situation is manifesting in the dance community, Episode 64: Dancing through covid-19, includes interviews with five different practitioners: Dr. Selina Shah (physician), Amanda Donahue (certified athletic trainer), Jennifer Milner (pilates teacher and ballet coach), Kristin Koskinen (registered dietitian nutritionist), and Dr. Paula Thomson (licensed clinical psychologist). Though they come from different fields, the perspectives of these experts offer some similar themes, including: anxiety, abundant creativity, and strangely, a heightened awareness of community.
