Mindset with Mariana: for anyone looking to train internally

Let’s getting into affirmations. They’re not some magical concept. They’re simply statements (usually past or present tense) that you want to make part of your daily routine. Whether that’s pumping you up every day, reminding yourself how awesome you are or helping you focus on the task at hand. It’s all about creating the concept, perception of self. Don’t forget to follow my mini videos on YouTube and daily updates on Instagram. Simply search “inner dance coach”.

What is the difference between criticism and critique? Chiefly, how they make you feel (and if you teach, how you make others feel). Let’s talk about ways these two things can affect your life and how to take back control if you realize, you’ve been controlled by it.

Do you feel like you don’t belong as a dancer? Is that because you lack qualifications or are you destroying your own opportunities from the inside? Let’s talk about it! I present my own thoughts and opinions on the subject from three perspectives: as a Middle Eastern dancer, a Western trained dancer in ballet/jazz/modern/hip-hop and Latin ballroom, and as a woman. Drop me a comment/ question or a message for more @innerdancecoach on Instagram.

What’s holding you back from achieving your goals or becoming the best version of yourself? Mental blocks or emotional blocks usually get blamed for this. What if I told you the creation of these blocks as a concept is a problem. Let’s get rid of all the doubt, as well as any construct that’s holding you back.

Welcome to the first episode! These will be dropping on Thursday going forward but let’s talk about accountability in a dance context. What are you accountable for?
