Counts or musicality?

Having both can make you a dynamic dancer, coachable and adaptable to any choreographer or class.

Listen in to hear how important it is to count to the music and feel into the music.

Everyone, I am so pumped to have the one and only, the GOAT, my mom (Veronica Neely), on the podcast.

My mom is the reason why I fell in love with dancing and performing and she is on this week to talk about the things she went through during all the years of supporting me through dance, how she did it, what she learned and the challenges she faced.

Let's just say she's a legend, and I am extremely grateful to have her as a mom and the biggest supporter in my life.

Enjoy!
