Dance is such a visual sport and an art so it isn't surprising that social media can play such a large role.  Whether you run your child's account or have a teen who manages their own, the risks of putting your dancers life, photos and identity are something that should be considered when using social media.  How can we protect our dancers and their image?  What safe practices can we use as parents?  We hope to tackle these questions with help from an expert and former guest of Two dance moms, Retired Police Officer Joe Marks. Welcome Joe and Welcome you all to Two Dance Moms podcast!
