Hello Everyone!
Today we are listening to the amazing Wynton Learson Marsalis. The incredible iconic Trumpeter. He is obsessed with practicing and went on to win Grammys in both jazz and classical music in the same year. That's seriously unheard of.
Now for those not in the music world, winning grammys is like winning an oscar, it is the highest award you can get in music and winning in both jazz and classical categories is absolutely phenomenal. He is a sensational musician.
You won't be shocked that he worked extremely hard to get there, with a lot of practice, a lot.

Hello Everyone!
We all know injury totally sucks. It can feel like your life has fallen apart and that you have failed. I can feel like all your dreams are falling behind you while others are doing super well in life.
Well having been injured seriously a couple of times before, I know what this feels like. Yes, initially it absolutely sucks. Soon after though I became addicted with the opportunity to grow and become a better dancer, going back stronger than ever.
I had the desire, the faith and took the action. Let's discuss!

I am super excited for us to speak with Joy Womack. I really resonated with joy as we had similar dreams, and similar goals of learning in Russia. Joy is an extremely determined and ambitious woman. She is always creating big goals in her head and taking her life where the oppurtunity is, not afraid to try and go for it. A really inspiring dancer and woman.

Hello Everyone!
Today I will be taking you through some very easy steps to feeling more confident. Being confident isn't just something we are born with. We need to practice it just like our pirouettes Often it comes with the more "uncomfortable" situations we put ourselves in. Those situations, give us experience, which gives us growth, which gives us confidence in realising we are capable of a lot more than we give ourselves credit for.
Let's discuss!.

Hello Everyone!
First of all thank you so much for the support of the podcast. It brings me joy to help many of you all over the world.

However without balance and seeing the benefits of that, we will eventually burnout and lose all joy for what we do. Jess Spinner of The Whole Dancer, has dedicated her life to helping dancers globally find joy and balance within their training and professional career to assure ..read more
