The poetry that I felt in dance began to percolate in another way, so I could express it through language and still use my body.

Session Summary

A body built for ballet, broken by it, and rebuilt through language, acting, and yoga. In this conversation, Susan Priver traces her path from the School of American Ballet and classical companies like Cleveland Ballet to a devastating firing at 24 that shattered her identity and plunged her into profound depression. She shares how acting training at the Actors Studio, method-based sensory work, and eventually Harold Pinter’s The Lover gave her a new choreography for her inner life, letting her translate the “pure poetry” she once found only in dance into voice, language, and character. Along the way, yoga, art modeling, and teaching became lifelines, helping her live in a body that no longer looked like a ballerina’s while she slowly reclaimed her artistry as an actor and author of the memoir Dancer Interrupted: A True Exposé of a Ballerina’s Fall from Grace.

Takeaways from this session:

• When ballet is your whole identity, being fired feels like erasure.Susan describes being let go from Cleveland Ballet in her mid‑20s during the Reagan-era funding cuts as a trauma that froze her in time, triggering a “very, very deep depression” and a sense of being utterly unloved and without identity beyond dance.​

• Art doesn’t die when one form ends—it changes shape.Initially more fluent in movement than words, Susan spent years in acting training learning to connect her “sensitive instrument” to the music of language, eventually discovering that the same inner poetry she once expressed in ballet could live inside a character’s body and text onstage.​

• Sex, Lies and Harold Pinter taps her dancer’s sensuality in a new way.In The Lover, Susan plays Sarah, a wife who keeps her marriage alive through ritualized erotic role‑play, using her dancer’s awareness of sensuality, timing, and physical presence to navigate Pinter’s razor‑edge of fantasy, danger, and desire—without literally dancing. Bongos, ritual, and Pinter’s precise language become the score she moves through.​​

• Yoga became a bridge between the “fallen” ballerina and the emerging actor.In her late 20s, after her father’s death, stalled auditions, weight gain, and hair loss from alopecia, Susan turned to yoga to manage anxiety, befriend her non‑dancer body, and quiet the “constant negative chatter” that told her she was no longer enough. That practice eventually led to teaching, where she discovered a new voice guiding others into their own bodies.​

• There are ways through a “fall from grace” for dancers.For dancers who feel their career is over, Susan advocates reaching out—through therapy, movement practices like yoga, mentoring, or education—to translate kinesthetic and emotional intelligence into other forms: teaching, choreography, community programs, other art forms, or entirely new professions. She highlights colleagues who became painters, community dance leaders, and arts educators as examples of what’s possible beyond the stage.

Art is always speaking about issues because it's about humanity and empathy and visions. 

Session Summary

Dance holds our everyday stories and wildest questions—and when curated intentionally, an entire city moves differently. Barbara Müller-Wittmann shares how her 2017 "risky experiment" grew into LA's largest independent contemporary dance festival: 17 choreographers, 6 companies, 6 weeks of boundary-pushing work across two stages.

A Few Key Takeaways

• Stories driving selections, from family puppets to social justice via Dancing Through Prison Walls—art as humanity, empathy, visions.​
• New expansions: dance films from Dare to Dance in Public, workshops, interactive experiences to feel dance "in all its forms."​
• Qualities that make her say yes: work that touches, surprises, melts the heart—beyond technical skill.​
• Simple artist visibility tips: email curators, invite to rehearsals, share short videos—she watches every one.​
• Audience magic: loyal subscribers who attend everything, declaring "I didn't know dance could be this in LA."

Groove and feeling behind the execution are what make it look like breaking instead of just acrobatics.

Session Summary

From birthday breaking classes to international battles, Canadian breaker and educator Ryan Everett (Bboy Frescy) shares how work ethic, community, and curiosity have shaped his journey in hip hop. He talks about not being “the most talented in the class,” learning to love the grind of practice, and why showing up for the community matters just as much as winning or losing.​

Ryan also explores the evolving landscape of breaking, from battle etiquette and subjective judging to the power of groove, foundation, and studying all the elements of hip hop culture.

A Few Key Takeaways

• Show up for the culture.Even if you don’t feel “ready” to compete, being present—cyphering, spectating, supporting—builds experience and community.​

• Let work ethic lead. Not being the most naturally talented can become an asset when it motivates you to train with consistency and intention.​

• Stay after you lose.The event is bigger than your bracket; the cyphers, conversations, and shared energy are part of what you give back.​

• Don’t shrink your style. Trying to match what you think judges want can water down the individuality that makes your dancing memorable.​

• Honor every element. Learning about music, DJing, graffiti, and MCing offers context that can transform how you move and how you listen.​

• Use footage wisely. Let battle clips and tutorials inform you, but resist the urge to compare or copy to the point you lose your own voice.​

• Groove is non‑negotiable. Bouncing, rocking, and feeling the music for full songs helps keep your breaking rooted in dance, not just acrobatics.​

• Tailor your own pattern. Your journey doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s; you can follow references while still designing a path that fits you.​

Session Summary

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, we travel from a small Pacific island to the bright lights of New York City, tracing a 41-year dream that finally arrives in real time through breath, presence, and synchronicity. Rooted in personal reflections on childhood in Guam, a formative love of dance, and a recent trip to see Turn It Out with Tiler Peck & Friends at New York City Center, this episode explores how intentional breathing and long-held vision can reshape the way we move through art, business, and everyday life.

A Few Key Takeaways

In this session, you’ll learn:

• How a dream first sparked by movies likeBreakin',Flashdance, andFamegrew over four decades into a lived experience of walking New York City streets and sitting in the audience forTurn It Out with Tiler Peck & Friends.

• Why breath functions as a quiet companion through seasons of doubt and distance, becoming a grounding practice for both performance and entrepreneurship.

• How Tiler Peck and her collaborators fuse ballet, tap, contemporary dance, and improvisation into a living example of presence, authenticity, and risk-taking onstage.

• What the commissioned pieceTime Spell—with its live vocals, emphasis on breathing, and invitation to “be yourself”—reveals about authenticity and the sacredness of live performance.

• How a seemingly separate business conference in New York echoed the same themes of breath, leadership, and showing up fully, highlighting surprising synchronicities between dance and business.

• Why non-linear journeys, detours, and pauses often serve as preparation for the very moment that once felt impossibly far away.

• A simple three-breath practice you can use anytime to reconnect with presence, possibility, and trust in your path.

“The body isn’t just an instrument; it’s a living realm of experience that can guide us through grief, loss, and into true self.” - Arianne MacBean

Session Summary

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, we explore how movement, memory, and the wisdom of the body can become portals to authentic selfhood with dance artist, somatic psychotherapist, and author Arianne MacBean. Rooted in a rich background of community-based dance theater and deep clinical training, Arianne shares how she guides clients and communities to “swim through the muck” of grief, anger, and loss through the sensations of the body. She also talks about her upcoming somatic journal, Tough Shit: The Angry Woman’s Guide to Embodying Change, and why anger can be a powerful doorway to true self when met with compassion and curiosity.

A Few Key Takeaways

In this session, you’ll learn:

• How Arianne uses body sensations as an access point to get close to the psyche, helping clients move through grief, heartbreak, and shadow material toward true self.

• Why her work with The Big Show Co. and long-term projects with veterans and women in recovery revealed that community dance theater was doing real healing work long before she formally trained as a therapist.

• A fresh, somatic way to approach ballet and technique class—slowing down, closing the eyes, and letting the body lead plies, tendus, and relevés from lived sensation rather than only aesthetics.

• How ancestry, myth, archetype, and her namesake Ariadne inform her idea of “liminal imminence,” a moving, gender-fluid sense of the divine within the dancing body.

• What it means to be a “wounded healer” navigating her mother’s death, midlife grad school, and a lifelong devotion to excavating the feminine psyche.

• How women’s somatic circles, ritual, drawing, and movement can create multi-generational spaces where things “get real pretty quick” and deep resourcing in the body becomes possible.

• Simple somatic practices anyone can use—like noticing how you’re sitting, tracking a “rock in your shoe” concern into the body, or even clenching and releasing a fist—to honor emotions instead of bypassing them.

Featured Links and Credits

• Synergy Somatic Psychotherapy (Arianne’s practice)

• Journal – Tough Shit: The Angry Woman’s Guide to Embodying ChangeA self-reflection and somatic journal that uses anger as the starting point to trace “negative” emotions like fear, sadness, and hurt back to true self, with writing prompts paired with somatic exercises.

• Publisher – Tehom Center Publishing

• The Big Show Co. & The Collective Memory Project Community-based performance initiatives working with veterans through memory-writing and movement workshops, culminating in dance-theater performances that blend text, dance, and lived experience.

• Women’s Somatic Circles & Ritual Work Circles, retreats, and workshops where women co-create ritual, draw, move, and share in multi-generational spaces centered on the feminine, resourcing, and embodied myth.

• Forthcoming books mentioned

  • Back Pocket Therapy– “Gems from the therapy room” for humans on the go.

  • Somatics for Real Life– Accessible, subtle somatic frameworks for everyday living (no contortion or complex exercise required).

  We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are. — Anaïs Nin

  Join me for a journey into perception, memory, and vulnerability as experienced through contemporary dance. In this episode, I reflect on two captivating works: Corina Kinnear and Company's "Forgotten Time" and Jordan Saenz's "The Shadow Poems". Discover how movement resonates with our inner stories and draws us into the ebb and flow of time.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  1. Forgotten Time by Corina Kinnear and Company: Shifting Memories, Elastic Time Corina Kinnear's "Forgotten Time" envelops you in a contemplative, almost cinematic world. Imagine a stage awash in subtle lighting as dancers drift in and out of shadow—each movement a meditation on how memory and perception stretch and contract the moments that make up our lives.
  • The choreography doesn't just recount events; it surfaces the nostalgia and anticipation that inform how we experience time itself.
  • Music, lighting, and presence work together to prompt reflection: Which memories do we hold onto? Which do we let slip by?
  
  Dance Life Parallel: Artistic creation—and our lives—are shaped by how we recall the past and imagine the future. Every step carries the echo of memories remade in the moment. 2. The Shadow Poems by Jordan Saenz: Dancing with Vulnerability "The Shadow Poems," co-created and danced by Jordan Saenz and Ariana Daub, exposes the intricacies of our inner world—dysregulation, fear, surrender, grief, and the hard-won gift of self-compassion.
  • The dialogue between the dancers' bodies is riveting: sometimes leaning in for support, breaking away. It's a study in dependency and the bravery it takes to let go.
  • The motif of shadow—shifting and morphing as the dancers approach the light suggests how appearances, attachments, and identities are amplified or diminished by our proximity to what we seek.
  • The choreography conjures the yoga concept of aparigraha (non-attachment), posing the question: What are you holding onto too tightly?
  
  Dance Life Parallel: Vulnerability is a practice, onstage and off. Recognizing it and moving through it is where transformation lives. 3. Personal Reflections: When Life Meets Performance It's those small, unscripted moments that shape the experience:
  • A crowded lobby, running into a familiar face, delayed seating—all set the stage for anticipation and heightened focus.
  • Unexpected choices—a country tune opening the show—snap you to attention and invite you to let go of preconceptions.
  • Noticing how your own influences (for me, a "Devious Maids" binge) color your interpretation of movement, plot, and energy.
  
  During the performance, imaginative space flourished. Interactions between light and movement—like the illumination of a single hand—invited both focus and daydream. Tiny energy exchanges between dancers, fleeting yet powerful, reminded me how much dance (like life) is shaped by the subtlest shifts. 4. Broader Context: The Dance Between Self and World Both "Forgotten Time" and "Shadow Poems" are part of a broader evolution in contemporary dance—one that embraces vulnerability and introspection. These works aren't just for the dancers; they're for us, the audience, too. We are asked to examine our attachments, notice what colors our perception, and find meaning in what changes as we move toward our goals. As Anaïs Nin said, we see and experience not the world as it is, but as we are in this moment.

  I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to sail my ship. -Louisa May Alcott

  I invite you to join me as I step into the enchanting world of the Little Women Ballet immersive experience at Heritage Square Museum in Los Angeles. Surrounded by the rich history of Victorian-era homes and the artistry of live ballet, I found myself reflecting on how the timeless journey of the March sisters mirrors the challenges and triumphs we face as creatives and entrepreneurs. As we explore this unique blend of dance, storytelling, and community, let us uncover the lessons that can move us forward—on stage, in business, and life.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  Let’s step into the world of the March sisters and discover five unique lessons this immersive experience offers for dance, life, and business.

  1. Site-Specific Storytelling: The Power of Place

  Unlike a traditional stage performance, the Little Women Ballet unfolds across the historic Victorian homes of Heritage Square. Each audience group is guided through the museum, experiencing intimate dance vignettes in different rooms and gardens. This site-specific approach transforms both the art and the audience, reminding us that our environment shapes our creativity and message1. Dance Life Parallel: Just as the dancers adapt to each unique space, we as artists and entrepreneurs must learn to thrive in ever-changing environments. Flexibility—both literal and figurative—is key to growth.

  2. Resilience in the Face of Adversity

  The Little Women Ballet team faced a devastating setback when a fire destroyed their props, costumes, and decorations. Yet, with the support of their community, they rebuilt and returned stronger than ever1. Business Lesson: Setbacks are inevitable, but how we respond defines our journey. The ability to rebuild, reimagine, and reconnect with your mission is what sets successful ventures apart.

  3. Personalization and Audience Engagement

  Every guest receives a colored ribbon matching one of the March sisters, guiding their route and narrator for the evening. This thoughtful touch personalizes the experience and deepens the audience’s connection to the story1. Entrepreneurial Insight: Personalization isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a strategy. Whether in dance, teaching, or business, tailoring experiences to your audience creates lasting impact and loyalty.

  4. Celebrating Women’s Stories and Leadership

  Choreographer Emma Andres, just 26 years old, leads a cast ranging from ages 10 to 75, all donning handmade 19th-century costumes. This ballet is not only a tribute to Louisa May Alcott but also a movement to center women’s voices and stories in dance1. Life and Business Takeaway: Representation matters. Lifting up diverse voices and empowering the next generation of leaders—especially women—enriches our communities and industries.

  5. Community and Collaboration

  The immersive experience concludes with Victorian folk dancing, inviting guests to join the cast, followed by a meet-and-greet and photos. This blurring of performer and audience fosters a sense of community and shared joy1. Dancepreneuring Mindset: Collaboration and community-building are at the heart of both artistic and entrepreneurial success. When we invite others to participate, we create something greater than ourselves. As I wandered the grounds of Heritage Square, ribbon in hand, I was reminded of the timelessness of dance and the enduring relevance of Little Women’s themes: resilience, creativity, and the power of community. Whether you’re a dancer, a business owner, or simply someone seeking inspiration, these lessons resonate far beyond the stage. Until next time, keep moving with intention, creativity, and heart.

As we explore this unique blend of dance, storytelling, and community, let us uncover the lessons that can move us forward—on stage, in business, and life.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  Let’s step into the world of the March sisters and discover five unique lessons this immersive experience offers for dance, life, and business.

  1. Site-Specific Storytelling: The Power of Place

  Unlike a traditional stage performance, the Little Women Ballet unfolds across the historic Victorian homes of Heritage Square. Each audience group is guided through the museum, experiencing intimate dance vignettes in different rooms and gardens. This site-specific approach transforms both the art and the audience, reminding us that our environment shapes our creativity and message1. Dance Life Parallel: Just as the dancers adapt to each unique space, we as artists and entrepreneurs must learn to thrive in ever-changing environments. Flexibility—both literal and figurative—is key to growth.

  2. Resilience in the Face of Adversity

  The Little Women Ballet team faced a devastating setback when a fire destroyed their props, costumes, and decorations. Yet, with the support of their community, they rebuilt and returned stronger than ever1. Business Lesson: Setbacks are inevitable, but how we respond defines our journey. The ability to rebuild, reimagine, and reconnect with your mission is what sets successful ventures apart.

  3. Personalization and Audience Engagement

  Every guest receives a colored ribbon matching one of the March sisters, guiding their route and narrator for the evening. This thoughtful touch personalizes the experience and deepens the audience’s connection to the story1. Entrepreneurial Insight: Personalization isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a strategy. Whether in dance, teaching, or business, tailoring experiences to your audience creates lasting impact and loyalty.

  4. Celebrating Women’s Stories and Leadership

  Choreographer Emma Andres, just 26 years old, leads a cast ranging from ages 10 to 75, all donning handmade 19th-century costumes. This ballet is not only a tribute to Louisa May Alcott but also a movement to center women’s voices and stories in dance1. Life and Business Takeaway: Representation matters. Lifting up diverse voices and empowering the next generation of leaders—especially women—enriches our communities and industries.

  5. Community and Collaboration

  The immersive experience concludes with Victorian folk dancing, inviting guests to join the cast, followed by a meet-and-greet and photos. This blurring of performer and audience fosters a sense of community and shared joy1. Dancepreneuring Mindset: Collaboration and community-building are at the heart of both artistic and entrepreneurial success. When we invite others to participate, we create something greater than ourselves. As I wandered the grounds of Heritage Square, ribbon in hand, I was reminded of the timelessness of dance and the enduring relevance of Little Women’s themes: resilience, creativity, and the power of community. Whether you’re a dancer, a business owner, or simply someone seeking inspiration, these lessons resonate far beyond the stage. Until next time, keep moving with intention, creativity, and heart.

  Not everything needs to make sense to be meaningful.

  In this episode of The DancePreneuring Studio, I invite you to step into the beauty of ambiguity with me as we explore the world of ‘In Search of an Exit’ by Steven Atwater and Thomas Ford.  We’ll discover how embracing uncertainty, valuing diverse perspectives, and finding strength in both vulnerability and playfulness can inspire growth in dance, life, and business. Join me as we celebrate the power of small, supportive spaces and the creative freedom that comes from making your own meaning—on stage and beyond.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  1. Embrace uncertainty and ambiguity—allow yourself to make your own meaning from experiences, both in art and in life.
  2. Value diverse perspectives and stories, recognizing that each viewpoint adds richness to our understanding and growth.
  3. Use vulnerability and playfulness as strengths; they foster deeper connections and spark creativity, whether on stage or in business.
  4. Appreciate the power of small, supportive environments—intimate venues create space for genuine connection and community, fueling artistic and personal development.
  5. Remember that not everything needs to “make sense” to be valuable; sometimes, the most profound insights come from what is left open to interpretation.
  6. Recognize how dance dramatizes the search for identity and belonging, resonating with universal themes of otherness and self-discovery.
  7. Notice the impact of artistic choices, like unconventional staging, which invite both performers and audiences to reconsider their roles and perspectives.
  8. Celebrate playfulness and experimentation, understanding that humor, risk-taking, and creative exploration are essential for innovation and fulfillment in any field.

  If you knew you were going to die, how would you dance? -Pina Bausch

  When Pina Bausch created her groundbreaking piece The Rite of Spring in 1975, she posed this as the main question for her dancers. The piece explores the unwavering ritual that occurs when the season shifts from winter to spring through the sacrifice of a "chosen one." This ground-breaking work, which established Bausch's renowned methodology, has blossomed into one of the dance world's most notable and consequential pieces of the 20th century. A specially assembled company of more than thirty dancers from 14 countries gives Bausch's monumental choreography a thrilling new life, all while staying faithful to Stravinsky's visceral score. They clash and participate in a poetic struggle of life, ritual, and sacrifice while dancing on a stage covered in peat.

  A Few Key Takeaways

   Let’s uncover seven powerful themes from this masterpiece and how they can ignite transformation in dance, life, and business.
  1. Embracing Urgency and Presence Bausch’s central question—how would you dance if you knew your time was limited—reminds us to approach every endeavor with urgency and full presence. Whether on stage, in a boardroom, or at home, bringing your whole self to each moment can lead to more authentic and impactful outcomes.
  2. The Power of Ritual and Repetition The piece’s cyclical rituals mirror the routines we build in our own lives and businesses. Repetition, when intentional, can be a pathway to mastery and self-discovery. Ask yourself: Are your daily rituals serving your growth, or are they holding you back?.
  3. Sacrifice for Collective Growth The sacrifice of the “chosen one” is a metaphor for what we must sometimes let go of—comfort, old habits, or outdated ideas—to allow new growth, both personally and organizationally. True progress often requires giving up something valuable for the greater good.
  4. Diversity as a Catalyst for Innovation The latest productions of The Rite of Spring feature dancers from 14 African countries, each bringing unique movement vocabularies and perspectives. In business and life, diversity isn’t just a value—it’s a wellspring for creativity and resilience.
  5. Leading with Instinct and Authenticity Bausch’s process was rooted in instinct and emotional truth, not just technical perfection. In dance, life, and entrepreneurship, trusting your gut and leading authentically can set you apart and foster deeper connections.
  6. Leaving a Mark Through Transformation Dancing on a stage covered in peat, the performers’ footprints remain as evidence of their journey. Every action leaves a legacy—consider what kind of mark you want to leave in your work, relationships, and community.
  7. Facing Fear and Embracing Vulnerability The chosen one’s final dance is raw, vulnerable, and fearless. Transformation requires us to confront our fears and be willing to show up, even when the outcome is uncertain. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s the birthplace of innovation and connection.
  
  Closing Thought: Pina Bausch’s The Rite of Spring is more than a dance—it’s an invitation to transform tradition, embrace change, and live with intention. Whether you’re a dancer, entrepreneur, or lifelong learner, let these themes inspire you to move boldly, lead authentically, and create your own rituals of renewal.

Brown and Dancers

  Without community, there is no liberation, only the most vulnerable and temporary armistice between an individual and her oppression. -Audre Lorde

  Even as performances like "ink" grace the stage for a fleeting moment, their impact resonates far beyond the theater. Each show may come and go, but the lessons they offer—about dance, life, and business—remain timeless and universally applicable. "ink" is not just a showcase of movement; it is a living tapestry of cultural preservation, narrative reclamation, interdisciplinary collaboration, empowerment, and community. Through its powerful storytelling, "ink" reminds us that honoring our roots, owning our stories, working together, and nurturing our connections are not just artistic ideals—they are guiding principles for thriving in any aspect of life. Whether you are a dancer, entrepreneur, or simply navigating your own journey, the insights from "ink" invite us all to celebrate heritage, embrace authenticity, collaborate boldly, empower ourselves and others, and cherish the bonds that unite us.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  • Cultural Preservation and Celebration: "ink" is more than a dance performance; it's a powerful narrative tool that pays homage to the rich heritage of the African Diaspora. It underscores the significance of preserving and celebrating cultural rituals, gestural vocabularies, and traditions that tell the story of a people's journey, resilience, and vitality. This element serves as a reminder of the importance of honoring cultural roots while informing and enriching contemporary creative expressions.
  • Narrative Reclamation and Authenticity: The performance emphasizes the critical need for communities, especially those whose histories have been marginalized, to own their narratives. By showcasing the authenticity of African-American experiences, "ink" challenges and seeks to correct the appropriation, rewriting, or silencing of Black narratives. It champions the idea that genuine stories, told with integrity and depth, have the power to reshape perceptions and foster a greater understanding of diverse identities and experiences.
  • Collaboration Across Disciplines for Storytelling: The collaborative nature of "ink," involving artists from various musical disciplines, highlights the importance of interdisciplinary efforts in telling a more holistic and impactful story. The fusion of dance with traditional and contemporary music forms creates a rich, immersive experience that transcends individual artistic mediums. This approach reflects the potential of cross-disciplinary collaborations to innovate, engage audiences on multiple levels, and enhance narrative depth.
  • Empowerment and Liberation Through Art: At its core, "ink" is a testament to the power of art as a means of self-empowerment, liberation, and healing. It illustrates how art can be a source of strength, enabling individuals and communities to tap into their "innate superpowers" amidst challenges such as exhaustion and resilience. This reinforces the concept that creative expressions can serve as vital tools for personal and collective empowerment, fostering a sense of belonging, identity, and liberation.
  • Community, Fellowship, and Relationships: The depiction of pedestrian interactions and relationships in "ink" brings to fore the essence of community and fellowship in the African-American experience and beyond. It is a celebration of the simple yet profound connections that tie individuals together, forming the fabric of society. The performance illustrates that these bonds, whether manifested through love, brotherhood, or shared struggles, are foundational to understanding human complexities and accessing shared superpowers. This underscores the role of social connections in building strong, resilient communities that can collectively navigate and overcome adversities.

  Movement, like creativity, isn't always linear. Sometimes you pause, sometimes you leap, but the music is always there, waiting.

  I candidly share my journey through an unplanned podcast hiatus. I explore the reasons behind stepping away—including technical challenges, shifting priorities, and self-doubt—and how these experiences mirror the creative process in dance and life. I reflect on the importance of returning to what you love, the lessons learned from stepping back, and the serendipity of connections that reignite passion. This episode offers encouragement for creatives, entrepreneurs, and anyone who’s ever paused on a dream, reminding listeners that every comeback is a new beginning and the music is always waiting for you to dance again.

  A Few Key Takeaways

  • Life’s interruptions—whether technical, emotional, or circumstantial—can cause us to step away from what we love.
  • Guilt and doubt often grow the longer we wait to return, but stepping back can also offer valuable perspective.
  • The creative journey is not always linear; pauses are natural, but returning is where the real art lies.
  • Every comeback is an opportunity to reconnect, collaborate, and move forward—one step, one beat, one episode at a time.

  Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character. -T. Alan Armstrong-

  My accomplished guest today is no stranger to winning events. At the time of this recording, his most recent win is his 6th World Title from Freestyle Session. He holds the most titles in the history of this event, that happens worldwide featuring some of the best dancers in hip hop. His remarkable winning streak started early on, accumulating over 100 first place titles before the age of 25. He continued onto working with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry such as Justin Timberlake, Missy Elliott, Christina Aguilera and The Black Eyed Peas to name a few, as well as being featured in movies, commercials and fulfilling a bucket list dream of being a main character on the Sony PlayStation Game Bboy. He is also the CEO and Founder of the Dance/Athletic/Lifestyle Brand called Sickstep Inc. and although based currently out of Atlanta, Georgia, he continues to be sought out from all over the world as a dancer, choreographer, educator and judge. If you’re in the Atlanta, Georgia area, go check out his breaking classes at Crumbs Dance Academy and if you’re not, I still recommend you check out more about him. :) A few takeaways from this session:
  • Focus on the basics and foundation to build your craft
  • Preparation and consistency in your habits
  • Learning to work as a team while utilizing your individual skillsets
  • Work ethic is critical

  "Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas." -Donatella Versace-

  If you compare two artists as different as Monet and Banksy, it would be no surprise that there would be opposing, conflicting opinions because of their artistic styles. Nonetheless, they are both creative and evoke a variety of emotions from their works.  In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share 7 tips on how to optimize the creative mindset based on my wonderful experiences at the Monet Expo and Banksy exhibit in Los Angeles. 7 Takeaways from this session:
  1. How can you create your environment to serve you best? Minimal or lots of things around that inspire you and bring your joy? Some of your tastes might be informed by culture, a love for a certain person, place or thing. For example, a friend of mine loves flamingos, disco balls and pom poms, so she has those objects in her surroundings. Monet was warm with comforting colors and his art taking you to beautiful experiences and places. In contrast, Banksy was confrontational, dark and mysterious.
  2. How can you add value and find ways to engage in your business and personal relationships? Both Monet and Banksy exhibits included additional VIP experiences like the coloring and displaying our art on the wall, and the virtual reality tour, and a souvenir poster to commemorate our experience.  For business and personal might be a quick phone call or a handwritten note. 
  3. What can you let go of that will take weight off your shoulders? I am reminded of the Banksy piece of the girl with the heart balloon. Sometimes it’s hard to let go of even good things but are you sacrificing great for good. This takes time to discern and can be different for the various seasons in your life.
  4. Instead of being quick to judge how about being quick to think compassionately? Extending grace to others and to yourself.
  5. What are some therapeutic activities you can do? Not to overwhelm by adding more things but things that give you some relief.
  6. Easing into versus rushing into–knee jerk reaction vs strategic intention. For example, I appreciated the sense of calm and ease of entering the Monet exhibit first with the setting of the music, then his life and artwork simply hung on the walls. The Banksy exhibit was quite the opposite. The contrast between light and dark was abrupt, things were in your face all over the place. This was still strategic because that is what is representative of his art.
  7. Destroying things might make them better.  For example, destroying bad habits, brings room for creativity and more ideal habits. Erase, replace and embrace what moves you forward to be more creative.

  -Georgia O'Keeffe

  It takes courage to create.  It takes courage to be vulnerable, to share your art with the world. Courageous is one word I would easily use to describe the artists in attendance at The World Choreography Awards that took place in December 2021 at The Globe Theater in Los Angeles. Wisdom and inspiration were abundant throughout my conversations with attendees and award nominees/winners that I am excited to share in this latest podcast session. https://youtu.be/hD3g2o4DAlM

  

    https://youtu.be/qZ0efg_ivx4

  

  

  

  

  

  A few takeaways from this session:

  • It's important to honor and know dance history, and where dance forms originate from.
  • Events like The World Choreography Awards are important to continue celebrating the work and creativity that goes into dance media.
  • Taking care of mental health needs to continue being forefront in dance and other creative arts.
  • Keep creating and supporting other creators and collaborators.
  • The importance of mentorship and training the next generation will help the longevity and integrity of dance and art.

  "The true mark of a leader is the willingness to stick with a bold course of action — an unconventional business strategy, a unique product-development roadmap, a controversial marketing campaign — even as the rest of the world wonders why you're not marching in step with the status quo. In other words, real leaders are happy to zig while others zag. They understand that in an era of hyper-competition and non-stop disruption, the only way to stand out from the crowd is to stand for something special."

  -Bill Taylor

  My guest on this session is Emeroy Bernardo, dancer and CEO of Vision Paradox and Artistic Director/Founder of Temper Tantrum Dance Company.  He stands for something special and is special in the dance, creative and entrepreneurial world which is why he’s been able to accomplish many things and continues to do so. Our conversation on leadership started from a comment that I made about being reminded of his leadership journey, then referring to my leadership lessons episode on Session #217, then him expressing that he could say a lot about that topic. So, this episode came from that initial exchange and I am so glad to share his insights. He is a great example of how to effectively lead yourself and others to more success. He stood in the gap for me and his other students when I met him coming back to dance in 2014, taking his classes, being challenged but also being encouraged. That is a mark of a true leader. If you want to know his background, listen to my other episodes that are linked on the bottom and if you search for his name, Emeroy Bernardo, you will come across other interviews, his top selling dance courses on Udemy, as well as his channels on YouTube.

  A few takeaways from this session:

  • Being an effective leader starts with leading yourself
  • Be intentional with your self-care and a morning routine
  • Enjoy your process
  • Be the example
  • Create a safe space for open communication and expression
  • Stay curious and learn something new
  • Don't be so attached to the outcome
  • Strike a balance between being serious and having fun
  • Be aware of your self-talk
  • You have more control than you think over leading your own life

  Leadership is lifting a person's vision to high sights, the raising of a person's performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations. —Peter Drucker

  To be an effective leader for others, the most important person is to first lead yourself. This session covers the following leadership lessons I gleaned from attending Freestyle Session 2021 in Los Angeles, a yearly event going down for the past 25 years in over 40 countries worldwide, representing every element of Hip Hop and street dance.

  Leadership lessons from Freestyle Session:

  1. Timing is key with dance moves and with leadership. Leaders are sensitive to timing. “There is timing in everything. Timing in strategy cannot be mastered without a great deal of practice.” – Miyamoto Musashi 
  2. Teamwork: Even if you are not a leadership "position," you are part of a team and your example is still impactful.
  3. Support: Do you have a support system in the different areas of your life? If not, do you have a plan to seek some out? Leaders provide sustained support for their teams. Leaders also know how to ask for support.
  4. Strategy and Tactics: A leader is forward focused. A leader is mission driven and has a plan. Not perfection but progress.
  5. Confidence is contagious. Not arrogance. As a leader, you inspire with confidence.
  6. Seize the moment but also savor it. This goes back to timing. Also enjoying the present moment.  Leaders plan for progress but enjoy the journey. There were many magical moments at this event.  Check out the Instagram profile for some amazing shots.
  7. Practice in private doesn’t mean it’s less important or you’re less important because people don’t notice you. This was prevalent in the smaller cyphers of people practicing for practice sake. Absorbing the energy of the event to refine their craft. Leaders do things because they have a mission, regardless if others notice or not.
  8. Moments and pauses: Leaders, and that can include dancers, know that moments and pauses are important. Business is not all about business. Great leaders have reverence for humanity. 
  9. Being an example for the next generation. No doubt there are things leaders deal with behind the scenes but because it is required for a leader to keep the company going, the necessities get executed.

  11. Expression vs impression: As a leader, what is your mission? To express your message or impress because of ego? This can be interchangeable depending on the context, however, a leader that is focused on their mission and message is already impressive and doesn't need to try to be perceived as such.

  Leadership is lifting a person's vision to high sights, the raising of a person's performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations. —Peter Drucker

  To be an effective leader for others, the most important person is to first lead yourself. This session covers the following leadership lessons I gleaned from attending Freestyle Session 2021 in Los Angeles, a yearly event going down for the past 25 years in over 40 countries worldwide, representing every element of Hip Hop and street dance.

  Leadership lessons from Freestyle Session:

  1. Timing is key with dance moves and with leadership. Leaders are sensitive to timing. “There is timing in everything. Timing in strategy cannot be mastered without a great deal of practice.” – Miyamoto Musashi 
  2. Teamwork: Even if you are not a leadership "position," you are part of a team and your example is still impactful.
  3. Support: Do you have a support system in the different areas of your life? If not, do you have a plan to seek some out? Leaders provide sustained support for their teams. Leaders also know how to ask for support.
  4. Strategy and Tactics: A leader is forward focused. A leader is mission driven and has a plan. Not perfection but progress.
  5. Confidence is contagious. Not arrogance. As a leader, you inspire with confidence.
  6. Seize the moment but also savor it. This goes back to timing. Also enjoying the present moment.  Leaders plan for progress but enjoy the journey. There were many magical moments at this event.  Check out the Instagram profile for some amazing shots.
  7. Practice in private doesn’t mean it’s less important or you’re less important because people don’t notice you. This was prevalent in the smaller cyphers of people practicing for practice sake. Absorbing the energy of the event to refine their craft. Leaders do things because they have a mission, regardless if others notice or not.
  8. Moments and pauses: Leaders, and that can include dancers, know that moments and pauses are important. Business is not all about business. Great leaders have reverence for humanity. 
  9. Being an example for the next generation. No doubt there are things leaders deal with behind the scenes but because it is required for a leader to keep the company going, the necessities get executed.
  10. An ode to honor for the people that paved the way: Leaders give reverence to people that were there before them. 
  11. Expression vs impression: As a leader, what is your mission? To express your message or impress because of ego? This can be interchangeable depending on the context, however, a leader that is focused on their mission and message is already impressive and doesn't need to try to be perceived as such.

  "We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams.”

  -Albert Einstein Even though we are coming out of this pandemic, seems like yesterday and it seems like a lifetime when things were shut down and we were navigating and figuring things out.  Regardless of circumstances, life requires us to navigate change and figure things out. As I’ve been navigating my journey coming back to dance in 2014 after two decades, it didn’t dawn on me that dance has been a huge component of my healing process in dealing with the negative relationship I had with myself and in turn how that affected my relationship with others. During the pandemic I had a delightful exchange with dancer, choreographer, somatic and creative recovery coach Morgyn Danae and I am happy to share this conversation that reminded me of the healing and meditative benefits of dance and movement.

   3 Takeaways from this session:

  1. Dance and movement are meditation. Meditation comes in different forms and can be experienced in different ways.
  2. Trauma is stored in the body and there are methods to address and release trauma.
  3. Dance, movement and meditation go beyond the aesthetic and performative aspects. Dance is a healing art.

I would use engaging and fascinating, for examples. Juxtapose is the title of their recent work that I got to experience thanks to The Wallis and ROW DTLA.  This is the second time I’ve seen this company perform, the first time was at The Wallis back in 2019. I would’ve happily seen them at The Wallis again but this was an outdoor performance on the rooftop of ROW DTLA and I am so thankful I got to experience a new venue. This performance inspired the following ten tips on our relationship with ourselves and with others as I was watching the intriguing interactions between the dancers:
  1. Ask yourself if you are asleep or awake? Most people are asleep with their eyes open going through the motions, sometimes alone and sometimes together. Do you need a wake up call in some area of your life?
  2. Stop worrying excessively about what people might think of you. Most are so entrenched in their own affairs that they aren’t even thinking of you.
  3. Focus on what you can appreciate. I appreciate the athletic artistry of this company, knowing I will be engaged. I would’ve cut the beginning part shorter, and not put so much repetition in some of the sections. My personal trigger was my experience with contact improvisation. It was very prominent between the performers and it took me back to my first class years ago and trying to be intuitive and then someone telling me I wasn’t really doing it properly.  I appreciate this movement form and the performers executed well--it was just my own personal bias toward my experience that caught me off guard.
  4. Ask yourself how best to respond to someone else. The example of the stage flooring when the dancers landing throughout the choreography was loud and abrupt. How do you want the interactions in your relationships to land?
  5. Pay attention to relationship dynamics. Sometimes you are supporting, provoking,  or inspiring. Just as each duo was interacting with one another, there was a constant give and take, push and pull.
  6. Are you getting caught up in what the majority is doing? Are you going to extremes when it isn’t necessary? It is easy to get caught up in what the majority is doing, and that can be both “bad” and beautiful. There is power in one and there is power in many. You decide how you want to disperse your energy and efforts in relationships. 
  7. Sometimes you have to release to get more strength and sometimes you have to stand your ground.
  8. Know that even when you feel alone, you aren’t. There are others around you that can help or inspire you. You have to allow space for it.
  9. When you need space for yourself, acknowledge that. And let others know that you do.
  10. Remember that the most important is first the relationship and trust within yourself and that affects how you show up in other relationships.

  Art is a political act.

  Dance is discipline and revolt.

  My body is my country.

  -Anabella Lenzu (Photo by Todd Carroll)

  2019 seems so long ago, especially in light of this past year of coming out of the pandemic. Looking back at history of some notable events in 2019, included some fortunate and some not so fortunate such as the All Women Spacewalk, the Amazon Forest wildfires,  Trump’s Impeachment, and The U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team winning its second consecutive championship. A remarkable experience I had in 2019 was the inspiring conversation I had with dancer, educator, choreographer and writer Anabella Lenzu. She directs her own company, Anabella Lenzu/DanceDrama (ALDD), which since 2006 has presented 390 performances, created 14 choreographic works and performed at 100 venues, presenting thought provoking and historically conscious dance-theater in NYC. Full disclosure this interview was supposed to come out shortly after our conversation, so some of the references might not be applicable, however, the valuable insights that Anabella shares continue to be timely. I was excited to be reminded of some other resources I am researching based on her recommendations and also note that her 2nd book that she talks about is scheduled to come out sometime this year 2021 or later.

  A few takeaways from our conversation:

  • How important it is to have a support system as an artist
  • Being open to process in the choreography process
  • Making movement meaningful as a full body experience versus just aesthetics
  • Why dance history is relevant

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio Podcast, we have a wonderful conversation about dance technique, artistry, dance education and more.The Beautiful Blend of Indian Dance and More Through Blue13 Dance Company

  Our work has always been rooted in unveiling inequity and celebrating with radical joy in the face of adversity. We are not any one thing to serve to satisfy white centered ideology. We are not inferior in our Bollywood, in our abstract work, on stage, or in a cypher. We are a brown and black global majority dance company, and our blood is blue. -Achinta S. McDaniel, Blue13 Dance Company

  Indian dance is not one thing. And Blue13 Dance Company based out of Los Angeles is an exemplary example of this through their beautiful blend of art, dance, movement and more. I had a wonderful conversation with critically acclaimed artist Achinta S. McDaniel, founder and artistic director of Blue13 Dance Company as she and her artists are in preparation for two events you don't want to miss if you are in the Greater Los Angeles area. One is a fun Bollywood experience in Downtown Los Angeles at The Music Center on Friday, September 10th from 7pm-11pm, and the second one is an audience immersive, site specific, outdoor Contemporary and Bollywood Dance spectacular called Shaadi (Hindi for wedding) that is sure to be one of the most memorable events that you can attend. Shaadi is happening on Friday, September 17th and Saturday, September 18th at the Heritage Square Museum.

  More about Achinta S. McDaniel:

  New Girl, Speechless with Minnie Driver, DJ Snake, The Amazing Race. Walt Disney World, Heineken, and Snapple to name a few. Household names and they all have something in common. The creative work of my guest today, Achinta McDaniel. In addition, the following words further describe this acclaimed artist: words Prolific. Powerful. A pioneer. Achinta S. McDaniel, choreographer, performer, educator and artistic director of Blue13 Dance Company based out of Los Angeles. She draws from techniques including Bhangra, Kathak, and Bollywood, Hip Hop, ballet, jazz, tap, and modern dance, to create spectacular and theatrical dance. She is known for her experimentation with international styles and for inventive staging of her signature contemporary Indian forms. Her choreography is highly dramatic and a real reflection of her upbringing: Eastern and Western, exotic, mysterious, wild, rebellious and unconventional. McDaniel’s work is fearless and inventive, ever-exploring the boundaries of contemporary dance as a first-generation Indian woman.

  A few takeaways from our conversation:

  • Defining that dance, movement and certain forms don't have to fit into the stereotypical European standards that have been heavily emphasized
  • Not only honoring process in our creative works, but the importance of the people involved
  • Cultivating a brave space for exploration and expression so that it can also be a safe space
  • Self-evaluation for your mission and asking the difficult questions of how you represent yourself and your artistry

  All of us are part of a beautiful pageantry of human experience. Let us make the most of this life in all we do.

  ― Laurence Overmire

  My lovely guest today has colorfully and beautifully amplified the human experience, through her extensive work in film, television, animation and theater. 

  Melissa Greenspan has been on notable shows such as Desperate Housewives, NCIS, and Modern Family to name a few and over 300 appearances for companies including FOX, NBC, TD Ameritrade, Discover Card, Capital One, Gerber, Dairy Queen, Hallmark,Chevron, Marshalls, Diet Pepsi and many more.

  According to The Tolucan Times, one of many wonderful testimonials “The diminutive Melissa Greenspan is infectiously lovable.”

  What I didn’t know is that Melissa danced in a company when she was younger, has a teenage daughter that is dancer and a gymnast, worked on “Dancing 4 Democracy” with some Broadway stars and dancers for the Biden/Harris campaign, and is playing the role of Ida Rubinstein a Russian dancer with Ballet Russe in the online work called “Unravelled” where art, music and science intersect.

  To describe this time as difficult is an understatement for most, yet within it lies a surplus of serendipities and loads of lessons. I am grateful to experience this firsthand learning from artists that I would not have access to if it weren't for the pandemic. Two of these awesome artists are Spenser Theberge and Jermaine Spivey.

  The Betweens was a fantastic and engaging work created by Spenser Theberge and Jermaine Spivey for L.A. Dance Project based on the current condition of this world because of COVID, the political climate and more. I am excited to share this rich conversation as we discuss creating this wonderful work, navigating through the unpredictable and the what has inspired them as people and as artists.

  Some key takeaways from Spenser and Jermaine:

  • Discovering and working with dancers as people first
  • Being flexible with the twists and turns of COVID that affected the creation and timing of their work
  • Conflict resolution can be approached differently but still arrive at a common place.
  • Dance and technique are not separate.
  • Inspiration can come from anywhere.

Not only am I entertained and moved, but I glean many lessons that apply to dance, life and business. The following thoughts are a summary of my experiences at various productions from the last few months. With all of the fantastic and not so fantastic experiences that have gone in my life these past months, I didn\'t realize how much time had passed with some of these experiences. Nonetheless, these 16 perspectives from watching a live performance can help you achieve your heart\'s desire. : )
  1. Once you\'ve made a decision, act quickly.
  2. Are you tribute worthy? Did you make your day tribute worthy? How could you end the day excellently?
  3. Let your work speak for itself. How does it make you feel? To know in your heart that you will do what you say you\'re going to do to the best of your ability does amazing things for your self-confidence.
  4. What is your preparation time like? Not always about quantity but also quality.
  5. Can you highlight someone else in your work besides yourself? Do you have a generous spirit? Being a generous person is more than just about money. Everybody can make someone else feel better. It isn\'t always about what you say but how you make them feel.
  6. Create a life that is important to you.
  7. Always be looking to add value. Can you implement the extra mile principal; How can I make it just a little bit better?
  8. Sometimes you don\'t need to know all the behind the scenes. If you aren\'t directly involved, why do you need to focus on the negative?
  9. Write things down while they are fresh in your memory. The faintest ink is better than the best memory.
  10. Little things matter. You can focus on a few things and put quality into them for things to stand out. And it doesn\'t always require a huge monetary expense.
  11. Sometimes it takes more than once to appreciate something.
  12. Kindness always goes a long way.
  13. Don\'t be afraid of showing things in progress. Some people want things to be \"perfect\" before they launch or release.
  14. Sometimes it\'s more important to have connection over content. Find your authentic tribe. Not everyone is going to vibe with your work.
  15. Be aware of overwhelm. Strive for simplicity.
  16. The energy you bring into a collaboration can make or break it. It\'s not so much whether things are positive or negative. although that is one component of it as opposed to are the energies complementary or life giving--Does the collaboration help you move forward to the end result?

  One thing in life is certain. And that is life is unpredictable.  You don’t always know what will happen next. Does that trigger fear? And what is fear to you?  Anxiety? The unknown? Or, can you approach fear in a different way, as an acronym that stands for feeling excited and ready? I thought about this after my conversation with the insightful Louise Reichlin of Louise Reichlin & Dancers, also known as Los Angeles Choreographers and Dancers on the topic of the unknown and not being afraid of failure. We had a wonderful conversation about her longevity with her dance company celebrating 40 years this year, with performances on October 19th and 20th at The Barnsdall Gallery Theater. We also discussed her paths to purpose, different learning styles, the importance of being present and more.  I was so excited to interview her in person, in her home, in a room that was full of fascinating dance history and making art.

  What started as an experiment to carry on a legacy, has turned into a successful dance company, The Leela Dance Collective.  They have provided incredible experiences to audiences all over the world. Their latest work, Son of The Wind,  will be presented soon at one of my favorite venues, The Ford Theaters in Los Angeles on Saturday, September 14th, 2019 at 8:00pm. I had the pleasure of having an in-person conversation recently with the lovely Rina Mehta, co-artistic director, at Soho Dance LA Studio, where Rina teaches. I was so excited to observe her class and learn more about kathak dance, a classical dance form that originates from Northern India. It is engaging, percussive and a joy to watch.

  Session Summary:

  Three dance companies. One good performance. Two outstanding performances. With anything, especially art, the difference between good and outstanding is subjective. This session is a summary of my experiences at three different dance performances from Ate9 Dance Company, Malpaso Dance Company and Batsheva Dance Company .  Listen to this episode to find out the one show that put at least two people to sleep (that I know of personally LOL), and which two shows that kept the audience engaged.

  Session Summary: 

  Ballet. Balance. These two words clearly go together. Throw in life such as a family with a husband, two young sons, and juggling different responsibilities.  Where does balance come in now? I personally prefer the word harmony over balance but in this context, balance will work. John Lam, Principal Dancer at The Boston Ballet, and I have fantastic dialogue regarding his perspectives of being a family man, the importance of artistry beyond ballet technique, and how life informs his work.

  Dance is for everyone.  Movement is for everyone.  Art is for everyone.

  Session Summary: 

  Ballet.  Michael Jackson. Bows. Solos. Companies. A few themes that were delightfully presented by performers from different abilities and demographics in Jerome Bel’s Gala at The Ace Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. Diversity and inclusivity were illustrated with different interpretations of these mentioned themes.  Throughout I saw the importance of times to lead, times to follow, and the importance of working together.  All in all, this was a great production showing that dance is for everyone, movement is for everyone and art is for everyone.

  -Kakuzo Okakura-

  Session Summary:

  3. Life is messy.
  4. Life is imperfect.
  5. Fear can appear very real.

  “To say nothing is saying something. You must denounce things you are against or one might believe that you support things you really do not.”
  ― Germany Kent

  Session Summary: Dancer. Educator. Yoga Instructor.  Certified Massage Therapist. Explorer. Advocate for change. Well accomplished academic. She’s the whole package and one of the nicest souls I’ve met. Currently based in India with her husband, I had the pleasure of meeting Kelli Forman at the 5 Year Anniversary Funk Celebration by Diggs Deeper in Los Angeles last year. She impressed me with her kindness and artistry. I thoroughly enjoyed the topics we covered in this session.  The above referenced quote was used because she took a stand on a dance matter that was highly sensitive. It had the potential for important discussion and change.  I was also reminded that hope, healing and happiness can come from many places and things.  Throughout our conversation, it impressed upon me that honoring history, especially in various dance forms, still needs to be emphasized.

  Maybe is a word that I always thought was lukewarm and non-committal...until I saw this production of Maybe at The Odyssey Theater in January 2019. This word now makes me think of patience, process and possibility.

   

  

  Session Summary: 

  I love surprises--sometimes. Depends on what the surprises are. When it comes to dance and art, surprises are always welcome. This was certainly the case with Shade Theret and Lukas Panek's collaboration of Maybe at The Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles. I didn't know what to expect and that was the point. Initially, I did not understand what was happening. The silence. The audience interspersed throughout the theater on stage and in the audience seating area. The long pauses with no verbal explanations. The artwork and pieces of paper throughout the stage. I became antsy with anticipation. But I am glad that it worked out this way, because as this work unfolded, it started to make sense. I had to give myself the time and space to process it. The following are insights that I gained from this well thought out exploratory work of art:

  1. Involve people in your process whether it's dance, life or business. People like to be a part of something.
  2. It's okay to sit and do nothing. It's not a waste of time.
  3. Questioning whether something is right or wrong is not always necessary. Some situations call for awareness and observation more than judgement or final conclusions.
  4. Don't be in such a hurry to the next thing.
  5. Note the familiar patterns in your dance, life and business. We so accustomed to seeing things done in a certain way that anything different disrupts our thought pattern.
  6. You don't have to perceive the same thing in the same way as another person.

  Session Summary: 

  First impressions and expectations can be unpredictable. That was certainly the case with watching this collaboration with Hubbard Street Dance and Third Coast Percussion. Having dreamt for many years of seeing Hubbard Street live, I was expecting solely a jazz dance style in their show, but I witnessed much more. Third Coast Percussion was new to me so my expectations were minimal, and they did not disappoint.

  Be open to experiencing new perspectives when attending events. I found it interesting that some of the audience thought that this show was not celebratory enough. So what was their definition of a celebration? Who knows. They also expressed that there was too much story and pantomime. I personally love when movement has story. It makes it more interesting to me. As always, art is subjective and you don't have to agree with everyone.

  My experiences thus far at The Wallis have been wonderful. It's a beautiful venue and the people that work there are so kind and helpful. I get so excited each time I attend a show at this fantastic facility.

So what was their definition of a celebration? Who knows. They also expressed that there was too much story and pantomime. I personally love when movement has story. It makes it more interesting to me. As always, art is subjective and you don't have to agree with everyone.

  My experiences thus far at The Wallis have been wonderful. It's a beautiful venue and the people that work there are so kind and helpful. I get so excited each time I attend a show at this fantastic facility.

  Session Summary: 

  First impressions can be lasting impressions. LA Dance Project and Mythili Prakash made lasting great impressions with their performances, and provided valuable reference points in their work that apply to dance, life and business.

  If you've listened to prior episodes when I review dance events, I take note of my first point of contact, from the first email, phone call and response. I pay attention to things such as the demeanor of the venue's team and other details. These impressions can be great impressions, or not so great impressions. These touch points can determine whether I want to return to the venue.

  One thing I appreciate is clarity. Especially in communication. I felt that with my contact with LA Dance Project, as well as the actual performances that I saw with both artists lended to a fantastic experience because there was clarity.

  Another thing I appreciate is simplicity. Things don't always have to be complicated to be spectacular or effective. Simplicity within the dancers' attire of LA Dance Project made the choreography stand out more to me. The simplicity of the emotions communicated by Mythili Prakash was very enjoyable to experience.

  Great impressions all around with this collaboration. : )

  Session Summary: 

  28 EXPLOSIVE DANCE FILMS, THEATER & ROOFTOP SCREENINGS, Q&A, HOLLYWOOD, GLOBAL BEATS by GINGEE, COCKTAILS, UMAMI BURGER, AWARDS, MIXER--If you saw this description for an event, you'd want to attend, right? I enjoyed my time at The Divulge Dancers Film Festival in November 2018 which inspired 5 essential elements to empower as an artist.

  

  1. Empower the element of your communication skills. One thing is to work on is enunciation. I had a hard time understanding one of the dancers on Get Lite.
  2. Empower the element of possibility thinking. Put the law of attraction into play. One of the dancers did this in Get Lite because he said he was going to Paris and London to teach and it happened. Get the creativity going toward the results you want and not what you don't want.
  3. Empower adversity into an advantage. Mother's Balls featured Amber's adversity of a strict background which forced her to be creative.
  4. Empower inclusivity in dance and other art forms. Making Waves with the Down's Syndrome dancers was very heartwarming. I am also reminded of other companies that are inclusive such as Axis, Heidi Latsky, Infinite Flow and Leigh Purtill Ballet Company.
  5. Empower Other's Skill Set. I love getting around other people that are more advanced in their skill sets than I am. A great example of someone who always empowered others to be better was Gene Kelly.

  I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

  -Maya Angelou-

  Session Summary: 

  Stimulating, Fascinating, Pure Innovation. These are a few words that I would use to describe the incredible dance performance company that is Pilobolus. Their recent production called Come To Your Senses provoked thought on how to stand out in dance, life and business.

  The following are 5 things to consider to stand out in any area of your life:

  1. Give yourself space mentally, physically, with time to ponder on what is your magic sauce. What is your wow factor? What makes you unique? With Pilobolus they incorporate forms of puppetry, gymnastics, theatrics to name a few.
  2. Don't overthink, get anxious and hung up on making an impression, if it's not in line with your end result. If something is not making sense, don't pursue it. I will also say that sometimes things don't make sense, but your gut tells you to proceed. So, it's a matter of you making the best choice at that moment in time.
  3. Innovation can come from common things. Pilobolus used digital means as well as common things like fabric. I also appreciated the simplicity of their attire. I liked the balance of innovation and simplicity.
  4. Relish in live experiences. Go to as many different types of events that you can.
  5. It's not always the details but the lasting impression. I don't remember a lot of the details of this show. But I do remember how it made me feel. It made me feel alive, appreciative of dance and art, and grateful to see creativity unfold before my eyes.

  Mistakes are portals of discovery.

  -James Joyce

  We all make mistakes. We all can learn from our own mistakes and the mistakes of others. In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I talk about the mixed emotions that came up as I attended East Meets West International Dance Festival at UC Irvine, my alma mater.

  Session Summary:

  1. It's a mistake to not make things convenient for others such as parking for an event.
  2. It's a mistake to not prepare for more than less, such as food, seats, materials, etc.
  3. It's a mistake to not have some sort of balance or harmony within choreography, a project, etc. I found the ballet piece in this production a bit long for my tastes in comparison to the other pieces, and it made me think that ballet was boring, which I never thought before.
  4. It's a mistake to not think that everything is perspective. Art is subjective.
  5. It's a mistake to not amplify the positive. I had mixed feelings attending this because it reminded me of when I quit dance, the people that judged me, etc. The positive that I amplified is that I got to experience the art form that I am so passionate about, the costumes, experiencing cultural dance, being with a dear friend of mine, and the 2 pieces that stood out to me Mountain Souls by Shanghai Normal University and King's Soldiers by Nanjing University of the Arts.

  Alonzo King LINES Ballet embraces a spirit of inquiry and openness to change combined with a reverence for legacy and history.

  -Core Ideology of LINES Ballet-

  Session Summary:

  Feature Presentation: There are many ways to make a powerful impact in dance, life and business. Alonzo King LINES Ballet made a powerful impact with an exquisite balance of ease, power and grace in their recent production of Sutra at The Wallis that inspired the 5 following thoughts:

  1. It's not about delighting the senses all the time but testing the mindset. Yoga is a great example where this is tested more often than not.

  2. There is a balance of effort and ease in many things. Professionals like the dancers in LINES Ballet make it look easy, but we know that takes a lot of work.

  3. Cutting things out that are not connecting. Combining East and West in this production showed the possibilities and importance of this. I also referenced an aspect of this in Session 193.

  4. Parameters can serve a purpose. For example, the body aesthetic in this company is clear with the beautiful lines that all the dancers had. I thought all companies were looking for these, but that's not the case. You might not fit these parameters but that doesn't make you less important, or less of an artist. Establish your parameters whether it's in your daily disciplines or the types of input you ingest from food, to reading material, to other forms of media.

  5. Are you looking for longevity or popularity? Is your mission to leave a legacy or simply make an impression? You can still make an impression but are you looking beyond the immediate?

  Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre knows how to take an ordinary site, such as a loading dock, and transform it into something extraordinary inspiring an array of emotions and lessons that empower dance, life and business.

  

   

  Session Summary:

  • Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward. Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed. Today’s step to success is revisiting the app that connects your devices called IFTTT. I talked about this on Session #026.
  • Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language. I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business. Today’s word is failli, which is a classical ballet term that means "falling through" or "giving way." Check out this video:
  • [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PjOcnF2144]
  • Freestyle Flow: Something very empowering about pushing weighted sleds. : )
  • Feature Presentation: What do you picture when you hear the word loading dock? I will never look at a loading dock the same. And especially knowing it's because of what I experienced at the loading dock at one of my favorite venues Ford Theatres in LA. My third time seeing Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre and again, they did not disappoint.
  
  

  

  • 7 reminders
  
  
  1. Where I sat, I observed a section about grief right in front of me. Sometimes you just need to be physically present for someone. You don't have to have all the right words, and sometimes words aren't necessary.
  2. With so much going on around you, be mindful of what you pay attention to. Not from a judgemental stance, but an awareness and observational stance.
  3. In the beginning there was a trash can that had a performer inside and I had no idea. I loved that element of surprise. Just because you don't see or experience something with your physical senses, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
  4. Don't compare your journey to someone else's. You don't live their life and you don't see what's going on behind the scenes. Sometimes other see things you don't, just like the audience perspective of placement throughout the dock.
  5. Everyone responds differently. In the performance, there was the commonality of struggle but how each dancer dealt with it was different. This definitely added a great dynamic to the production.
  6. Sometimes you make things more difficult than they are. There was a flag section that seemed like a struggle at times.
  7. You can't control others, people need to learn lessons for themselves.
  
  
  • Bonus Tips
  
  
  1. Be aware when you are retreating back into your comfort zone.
  2. There are times that you need to help yourself.

  Trust and risk, two things that can only propel us forward.

  -Nancy Evans Doede, Artistic Director of Nancy Evans Dance Theatre

  Session Summary:

  Let's get together.

  A statement that is used a lot. Usually with good intentions.

  But we all get so involved with the day to day that these plans might not happen.

  The creative collaboration that was discussed years prior between Nancy Evans Dance Theatre and Jacksonville Dance Theatre did happen though.

  I share 5 simple solutions that you can apply to dance, life and business that I got from watching this production:

  1. Preparation allows progress. Each company had existing repertory to work with.

  What do you need to prepare to go into a collaboration, meeting, project, etc?

   

  2. Don't get so caught up in logic that you lose emotion. Facts are important but you want people to feel something from your art.

   

  3. Sharpen your listening skills. This is something we all need to constantly work on.

   

  4. Cut out to add. The length of the show could have been reduced, and the in-betweens could've been tightened up. Cutting would not have taken away from the quality.

   

  5. There is a balance of trust and risk, which was evident in some parts of the partner work, but the process of the companies coming together is what I am most impressed with. : )

  5. There is a balance of trust and risk, which was evident in some parts of the partner work, but the process of the companies coming together is what I am most impressed with. : )

  Autobiography melds the worlds of science and art by incorporating something as universal as our own DNA into the foundation of the piece to engage audiences in new and different ways.

  -Michael Solomon, Vice-President of Presentations and Education at The Music Center

  Session Summary:

  Freestyle Flow: My magical morning elixir consists of movement, coffee and cold pressed juice. : ) Also, during one of my morning workouts at the hybrid gym that I go to now, I was reminded that you never know what a person is made of internally, merely by appearance. I was in a conversation with a friend about a race where a co-worker, who had never done a race or worked out, and didn't appear to be healthy, was the one that stayed accountable and proved to himself that he could do even more.

  Feature Presentation: Here are 5 tips for dance, life and business from my wonderful experience watching Autobiography by Company Wayne McGregor:

  1. Add to your arsenal. What tools or help do you need to experiment with different approaches? He used a computer algorithm to determine the selection of the 23 sequences so that each performance had variety and was never the same. How cool is that?
  2. Structure is not stifling. Creativity within structure can flourish with a beginning point, a middle section and an end. Having this 23 sequence structure and specific themes gave structure which I'll talk about in the 5th tip.
  3. Expand your horizons. I am quite impressed with his academic background and studies, as he is a professor and has an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Plymouth University, as well as having numerous awards. For you, it could be going to college, or taking other specialized courses. It could be an intensive in a subject that will further your knowledge base or give you a different experience.
  4. Dig deeper in one area. This piece was about taking something universal, our own DNA, and having dance and movement remind us of some of the random and unplanned events in all our lives. It was engaging and comforting at the same time, to acknowledge this aspect.
  5. Take care of aspects of your precious tool, your body, in terms of your memory, aging and sleep. These themes were conceptualized in this production by his incredible dancers. Not only the athleticism but the engaging musicality.
  
  

  It's easy to take for granted that there is inspiration all around, and things such as science, technology and dance can intersect.

  Age is just a number. State of mind, not date of birth. And, it's never too late to be great. I resonate so much with these words. I was so delighted to have a conversation with a remarkable woman by the name of Marjorie Goodson who is yet another awesome testimonial for these impactful statements. A dancer, an artist and an author, Marjorie thought that creating her beautiful dance book would be a good distraction from her daughter leaving for college. However, this distraction has turned into a delicious work of art that has brought much media attention and artistic growth.

  The truest expression of a people is in its dance and in its music. Bodies never lie.

   ~Agnes de Mille

  There are times when the simple dignity of movement can fulfill the function of a volume of words.

  ~Doris Humphrey

  Backslide, Apple Jack, Lockin, Electric Boogaloo, Urban Cha cha, and hip hop--what do you picture when you hear these words? If you know your dance history, these are dances and dance traditions from African American Culture. You know that saying, you don't know what you don't know? Well it turns out, not surprisingly that there was a lot I didn't know about these dance forms and traditions until I got to hear an engaging and entertaining discussion with dancer and dance historian E. Moncell Durden and curator Vida L. Brown at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles. From video clips, to demonstrations, to dialogue, I loved this experience and I'm going to share a number of things that stood out to me. This is in no particular order:

  1. Dancing for life's sake, versus dancing for arts' sake was the origin of many dance forms.
  2. Dance as worship. The style of KRUMP releasing negative energy. It's free, it can be exaggerated and energetic and it's a non-violent way to release this negative energy. Kingdom Radically Uplifted Mighty Praise is the acronym.
  3. I've observed cyphers in the past month and I didn't know it is a form of bonding. The circle is a space where there is encouragement. Finding and claiming space for one's own identity is the purpose behind many of these dance forms.
  4. The Soul Train Line--the dance/music show from 70's was about building community. There was no lead person and license to be your own person. You have that support as a whole but have the freedom of individuality. I love that!
  5. The evolution of dances, where what you see, has been done before. Seeing historical footage via images and video in comparison with more current media is proof of reinvention and repurposing.
  6. Earth vs heaven. Earth being grounded vs. European dance forms where there is more reach to the sky (heaven). There exists a Eurocentric ideology of the hierarchy of dance that certain forms are more important than others. I'm all about studying different styles and it's critical to know that one style is not more valuable than another.
  7. We haven't realized the value of gestures, and there is so much meaning behind them. I am fascinated with dance styles that use hand gestures, similar to mudras in Yoga.

  You dance totally different if you are aware of the history of the dance form. It changes the dance or music to something that is something significantly deeper and heavier. That is why sometimes you can do a lot less, because it means more. -Ethan Margolis, paraphrased on the importance of being immersed in the dance form history

  Feature Presentation: I had an educational and entertaining conversation with Ethan Margolis, director and guitarist of the upcoming Forever Flamenco: Family Gypsy Song, as he dispels the myths around the origins of Flamenco music and dance, things to observe if you're not familiar with Flamenco dance, the people that inspire him, and more.

  Dance, when you're broken open. Dance, if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free.

  ― Rumi

  The Dancefight Event that I attended a few weeks ago, inspired these 7 things that can be applied to dance, life and business.

   

  1.Learn to take time with the music. In dance, life and business, some ideas are for now and some ideas are for later.

  2.When there is contrast in styles, it's more interesting.

  3. Partner work was engaging and reminded me of the importance of creative collaborations and allowing time and experience for that to develop.

  4. Subtleties can be significant.

  5. When a variety of levels and directions of the freestyle were executed, it was more engaging.

  6. Clean transitions are so important. It made me think about being mindful of the transitions between activities during the day in dance, life and business.

  7. I love the encouragement from everyone all around. A battle can still be uplifting even though it's a competition.

  There is no shortage of evidence that shows that movement and physical activity are effective tools in dealing with mental health issues. In this session, I summarize my enriching experience at Psypher last month. Psypher is a special workshop created by Matthew Diep, that combines dance and a safe environment to discuss mental health and wellness.

  Letters to Dance gave me a new perspective of looking at dance as a person. A person that has given me a new life and added value in many areas. This workshop by renowned German choreographers Deufert and Plischke at The Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles was a fantastic experience. I learned new approaches to movement that I know I can use in dance, life and business.

  Session Summary:

  • Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward. Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed. Today’s step to success is showing up without throwing up. Meaning add value to potential business clients and don't throw up on them with all the details on your business if it doesn't serve their needs.
  • Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language. I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business. Today’s concept is a game called "Brown Girl in The Ring."
  • Freestyle Flow: Think twice if you're going to interrupt someone when they have their headphones on. Unless you're going to give them something they like LOL

  1. Memorialize. Keep a journal to preserve memories and be in constant gratitude.

  2. Don't be afraid to make movement a game.

  3. Learn the subtle art of mirroring.

  4. Be open to other approaches.

  5. Write a letter to dance as a person and share it with me if you're so inclined. : )

  Sensitive people care when the world doesn't because we understand waiting to be rescued and no one shows up. We have rescued ourselves, so many times that we have become self taught in the art of compassion for those forgotten.

  Session Summary:

  • Feature Presentation: To say that this Brave & Fearless Workshop was awesome, would be a gross understatement. It was truly an experience. Joey Cooper took us back in time--a journey through his tumultuous world and showed us that despite despair and discouragement, the bridge from broken to breakthrough is possible.

  Your style is not your style unless you can choose it. Foundation + You = Your Style -Jojo Diggs

  Session Summary:

  • Feature Presentation: The 5th Anniversary Funk Celebration by Diggs Deeper was an amazing event that brought the dance community together with insightful panels, exciting battles, and deeply moving performances. 5 commonalities between the speakers' insights are as follows:
  
  

  1. The passion for dance and their specialized styles.

  2. The importance of knowing your dance history, the people, the origins of the movements, and the foundations.

  3. The importance of getting outside of your comfort zone

  4. Connecting with the movement and music more than trying to impress people

  5. Trusting yourself

  Any show that breaks the monotony works. If the end product is good, nothing can stop it from being successful.”

  ― Kunal Karan Kapoor

  Memoirs of a Unicorn broke monotony for sure! The end product to me was great-this wonderful performance by Marjani Forte-Saunders. This is my take inside the mind of a unicorn, a mythical creature that can represent so much.

  Session Summary:

  • Feature Presentation: Marjani Forte-Saunders embodied a unicorn, a princess, an evil warrior and her own father which gave me the following important insights applicable to dance, life and business:
  • 1. Sometimes you don't have to understand all the details to get the full picture.
  • 2. You can be curious and inquisitive without overthinking.
  • 3. Get comfortable with intimacy.
  • 4. A variety of movement and experiences can be incorporated in dance, life and business.
  • 5. Release is required if you want balance.

  "Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate, and to humble." -Yehuda Berg

  Session Summary:

  • Feature Presentation: I have a wonderful conversation with Katrena Cohea about topics including using your words in ways to empower mindset in dance and life, vegan recipes, and more. A bit about Katrena:Katrena is the Owner and Founder of Different Drummer Dance, a bi-coastal dance studio on a mission to teach dance from the inside out. Different Drummer Dance takes a holistic and inclusive approach to dance education. She focuses on pairing dance technique with growth mindsets and positive affirmations so dancers learn that their bodies and ideas are powerful. Katrena is also a contributor to the magazine The Wonderful World of Dance. She splits her time between Northern California and upstate New York, and travels to as many new places as she can with her husband and dance shoes in tow.

  When a community comes together to focus on a common cause, miracles happen. This week's session is a quick recap of Boogiezone Utopia, the place that welcomed me back to dance after a 20+ year hiatus, and how people pulled together so that they could stay in operation.

  Session Summary:

  • Feature Presentation: These are the 5 takeaways I got from watching a community come together to save a dance studio:
  • 1. What is the attitude you have toward challenges as you are going through them?
  • 2. The importance of community and camaraderie.
  • 3. Ask for help but not with a self-pity, victim attitude.
  • 4. If you're truly about the creative process and doing excellent work, the accolades and credit are by-products, not the goals. Accolades without effort is empty.
  • 5. It is important to work strategically and effectively.

  Calm and chaos. Yin and yang. Navigating how to process these things. Such is life. Besides being a delightful experience, The 12th Annual MixMatch Dance Festival by Hart Pulse Dance Company inspired thoughts on calm and chaos.

  Session Summary:

  • Freestyle Flow: The song You Give Love a Bad Name by Bon Jovi came to mind when I drove by a long standing food establishment. Driving by, the smells are intoxicating. But when I actually tasted it, I can hardly describe how bland it really was. So I say to that place, You give grub (food) a bad name. LOL
  • Feature Presentation: My recent attendance at The 12th Annual MixMatch Dance Festival inspired observations on calm and chaos as follows:
  
  

  1. What can be calm to one, can be chaotic to another, and that's okay.

  2. Everybody is in leadership. Leadership position first has to be over yourself, then over others.

  3. When things are chaotic, are you reacting or responding?

   

  4. Decrease the time you are spending on certain things or obliterate them all together. More is not always better.

   

  5. Find your peeps. No, not those marshmallow things. Just because a certain group of people don't welcome you, doesn't mean that another group won't embrace you.

   

  7. When you experience chaos, you appreciate calm, and vice versa. The contrast of the various companies was a nice mix.

   

  8. Get clarity about your sequences whether in your dance choreography or business processes.

   

  9. Don't dwell on what you don't like. You can find something positive in everything if you choose.

   

  10. Don't be apologetic for what you do like.

  You will hear me talk a lot about the statement, "Do what you can with what you have." Another reminder of this was a performance called Moves After Dark featuring Clairobscur Dance, Strange & Elegant Dance and Mixed eMotion Theatrix  that took place at various points outside at The Walt Disney Concert Hall in Downtown Los Angeles. Each dance company made use of their resources and the surroundings to produce engaging works of art. Check out some of these clips of the production:

  Clairobscur Dance

  Strange and Elegant Dance

  Mixed eMotion Theatrix

  Session Summary:

  • Freestyle Flow: I used to spend so much time worrying of what other people thought of what I said or did, or didn't say or didn't do. Oy, too much mental energy spent on something I can't control. And on the flip side, if I feel led to contact someone, I try to not think twice about it because there is a reason why that person is coming to mind.
  • Feature Presentation: I share 5 ways you can use your resources in dance, life and business based on my experience at Moves After Dark as follows:
  • 1. Innovation of space and surroundings. How can you use what you already have, what you've already created?
  • 2. What is your message and your mission? Are they clear?
  • 3. Incorporate the live element as much as possible in what you do.
  • 4. Take notice of how you react and any biases you have.
  • 5. What is the experience you'd like to create for your audience?

  Instagram is my preferred social platform at the moment. I have learned a few things in my experience with Instagram and I share 8 insights that can help you navigate the content you create and consume.

  Session Summary:

  • Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward. Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed. Today's step to success is analyzing what is costing you to NOT do something. I talk about a conversation I overheard about exercise as an example.
  • Feature Presentation: Here are my 8 insights from Instagram as follows:
  • 1. Determine what goals you want from this platform, or any platform. Is it to share your personal life, your business brand? Ask questions? Do research?
  • 2. Be aware that there is a follow/unfollow game going on.
  • 3. Aesthetic isn't everything. I follow accounts because I like them, not because they look pretty or there's a proper ratio of images, videos and infographics.
  • 4. Pay attention to what people resonate with.
  • 5. Don't be one of those people or use those services that say, great page, follow me. Check me out. :(
  • 6. Stop playing the victim card.
  • 7. You don't own the platform so if you're looking for building long term relationships, take it elsewhere.
  • 8. Ignorance can be bliss, so if the above 7 don't resonate with you, disregard.

  Pay attention to warning signs. More importantly, pay attention to your intuition. This session on 7 warning signs that you're in the wrong business was difficult to record because I still wanted to keep it as positive as possible.

  Session Summary:

  • Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward. Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed. Today’s step to success is using whatever you need to stay hydrated. I love my Takeya Water Bottle.
  • Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language. I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business. Today’s concept is based on my recent experience at a backhanding workshop at my yoga studio.
  • Freestyle Flow: I love me some chocolate and sunflower butter. Yum : )
  • Feature Presentation:
  • 7 Warning Signs That You're In The Wrong Business
  •     1. Your treatment is conditional.
  •     2. They promote their definition of success over your definition of success.
  •     3. They ridicule other businesses and people, whether publicly or privately.
  •     4. You are not passionate about the product or service.
  •     5. They teach based on theory and speculation.
  •     6. They instill fear and guilt in you if you decide to pursue other projects.
  •     7. They pressure you to spend money that you don't have.

  People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care.

  -Theodore Roosevelt-

  In the latest session, I share a quick recap with Junior, creator and founder of JanFam The Movement, and Joey Cooper, Faculty Member on JanFam The Movement, covering their feedback on a recent choreography workshop with Tish Oliver, former dancer with Janet Jackson, I also cover 5 insights I gleaned from my experience with Tish, who is definitely the kind of person others want to be around! : )

  5 Insights from Tish Oliver that makes her the kind of person others want to be around:

  1. She wasn't afraid to laugh and be expressive.
  2. She didn't suppress her emotions even when she cried.
  3. When she didn't know an answer to a question, she was honest about it.
  4. Her passions for dance and medicine were obvious.
  5. She wasn't afraid to ask for help when she needed it.

Doesn&#8217;t matter. What matters is your mindset.  In this latest session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share 7 advantages of having the odds stacked against you. You&#8217;ll be encouraged by these. : )<br /> <br /> 1. There is no way to go but up, if you decide to choose to progress forward. You can quit, but that is not an option for me.<br /> 2. People underestimate you and that is a great barometer to see if you are looking for outside validation.<br /> 3. You build up internal strength.<br /> 4. You are automatically seeking what will give you the edge.<br /> 5. You get particular about your association. What kind of habits do you want to adopt from the people that you are around?<br /> 6. Your compassion compass gets stronger (like #3) as you identify and relate with those that also have odds stacked against them.<br /> 7. When you overcome, you encourage and inspire others that they can do the same. 🙂<br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dancepreneuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Join me on Facebook Live on Monday</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

When I take technical dance classes, I appreciate the specifics of foundational movement.  The same should be the goal in communication&#8211;simplicity and clarity.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: Locking myself out of my car twice in less than a month has taught me about slowing down and the importance of verbal cues.<br /> * Feature Presentation: 5 reasons to rejoice in rejection:<br /> <br /> * 1. Rejection challenges you to ask the question, &#8220;What does this make possible?&#8221;<br /> * 2. When things aren&#8217;t perfect, which they usually aren&#8217;t, imperfection doesn&#8217;t bother you as much.<br /> * 3. Rejection, and almost everything, is not permanent.<br /> * 4. Rejection gives you resiliency and resolve to build your mindset muscle.<br /> * 5. Rejection doesn&#8217;t diminish your value as a creative being.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dancepreneuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Join me on Facebook Live</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/160">Interview with Randi Strong</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

What&#8217;s the mood?<br /> 2. Is there a story to tell or a question to pose?<br /> 3. How many people are interacting or not?<br /> 4. Are they doing different, related or the same thing?<br /> 5. At the same time or different times?<br /> 6. How does rhythm, speed, repetition, height, depth, angle, extension, pattern come into play?<br /> 7. What sort of sound goes with this? Music, natural sounds, talking, or silence?<br /> <br /> In the case of being at the beach, can you see volleyball players, beach joggers, kids on the swings, or maybe a cyclist on the path?

Do you believe in who you are and what you&#8217;re doing or are you comparing yourself to others?<br /> * 2. Are you enduring or embracing your experiences? Going through the motions as opposed to allowing yourself to experience all emotions involved in creating can make a huge difference.<br /> * 3. Are you connected or attached?

It is a reminder to be aware that there are bullies and mean people that we have to deal with in this world.<br /> 2. It shows that you need to pay attention and probe when you are feeling antsy inside about something.<br /> 3. It shows that your beginnings don&#8217;t always determine your future.<br /> 4. It demonstrates the importance of mentorship and testimonials.<br /> 5. It shows that you can choose to move beyond past mistakes.<br /> 6. It is a great reminder that music is motivation. I loved how they used Head Games by Foreigner and Don&#8217;t Hold Back by Boston in the episodes. I have my own Mindset Playlist for pre-performance.<br /> 7. It probes you to ask if your content in your business is drawing people in.

You wouldn&#8217;t be on this earth if your story didn&#8217;t matter. You are not an accident.  Even if your parents had not planned on having you, or you were adopted, etc. your life is not without purpose even if you haven&#8217;t figured it out yet, and even if you never figure it out.<br /> <br /> 2. Your story matters because it gives you the choice to discern what is fact and what is truth. There is a difference.<br /> <br /> 3. Your story matters because you don&#8217;t know who you are going to encourage.<br /> <br /> 4. Your story matters because it teaches you to acknowledge the parts that haven&#8217;t been so great because it is your story, but you have the opportunity to not let that define you or your future. Embrace the lessons, but celebrate where your strengths have brought you.<br /> <br /> 5. Your story matters because it gives you the opportunity to be empathetic and be compassionate with others with similar stories, because you know what it feels like.<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dancepreneuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Join me on Facebook Live on Monday</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

And the pressure to keep up with those around you.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: College parking structures are interesting to navigate sometimes. And this time I missed a dance film festival because I couldn&#8217;t figure out what was going on with the parking. LOL<br /> * Feature Presentation: My third dance audition in over twenty years was yet another great experience and I was reminded of the following:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 1. Be aware of effort and ease. Know when to go full out and when to pull back.<br /> 2. Always carry water with you and stay hydrated.<br /> 3. Communicate and project your voice clearly.<br /> 4. Show a different side of you. How do you do this? Do different things than your normal routine. Make a list of 5 things you haven&#8217;t done or learned but would like to.  My list includes surfing, clay pottery, guitar, tennis, and aerial yoga with silks.<br /> 5. Be supportive and kind to those around you.<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dancepreneuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Join me on Facebook Live on Monday</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/153">My First Dance Audition in Over 20 Years</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/157">My Second Dance Audition in Over 20 years</a><br /> <a href="http://manduka.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manduka Yoga Mats</a><br /> <a href="http://dancelovers.com/waltz_history.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Information on The Waltz</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

These 5 things will help you regardless of the season that you are currently experiencing.<br /> Session Summary:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.  Today’s step to success is the benefits of journaling. I implement a hybrid based on recommendations from Tim Ferriss and The 5 Minute Journal.<br /> * Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today’s concept is based on doing the splits three ways and the correlation of doing the middle splits, as it relates to communication coming in the middle, and being mutually beneficial for all parties involved.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: Oh what memories scents can bring! My good friend Nick Goblirsch and I have a conversation on my affinity for scratch and sniff stickers and scented pens. LOL : )<br /> * Feature Presentation: I enjoyed Once in A Whale by Heidi Ducker Dance Theatre not only for the external beauty of the choreography, but for what it stirred within me. I know that the following 5 things can help you navigate the seasons of your life:<br /> 1. Be aware of the season you&#8217;re in and understand that it doesn&#8217;t have to be the same season as someone else<br /> 2. Identify What is supporting you and what is hindering you and do your best to adjust. Clear blockages to make room for what helps you.<br /> 3. Put things in your calendar. For me, if it&#8217;s not in my calendar or my to do list, the likelihood for completion is slim.<br /> 4. Incorporate some type of movement. Your body was made to move. Something is better than nothing.<br /> 5. Look for the good in the season, rather than what you don&#8217;t like. There are certain seasons that have been really depressing for me. But I&#8217;ve learned to be grateful for the good.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dancepreneuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Join me on Facebook Live on Monday</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Five-Minute-Journal-Happier-Minutes/dp/0991846206/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1522543983&amp;sr=8-3&amp;keywords=5+minute+journal&amp;dpID=411UY5QGPoL&amp;preST=_SY291_BO1,204,203,200_QL40_&amp;dpSrc=srch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">5 Minute Journal</a><br /> <a href="http://timferriss.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tim Ferriss</a><br /> <a href="http://heididuckler.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre</a><br /> <a href="http://www.pacificdesigncenter.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pacific Design Center</a><br /> <a href="http://thedependentindependent.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Dependent Independent Podcast</a><br /> <a href="http://thedependentindependent.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Keep Up With Mrs. Jones</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

Now a second one? Yup. I had to do it again. This experience was a bit different from my first one that I talked about in Session 153. Still, it is about getting out of my comfort zone and no longer having those regrets from 20+ years of giving up on myself.<br /> Session Summary:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.  Today’s step to success is integrating Facebook Live to interact with your community.  This is something I will be doing on a weekly basis. Date and time to be determined.<br /> * Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today’s concept is based on timing in choreography. It can make the difference in intention and in aesthetic in a dance piece.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: The song &#8220;No More Words&#8221; by Berlin reminded me of no more words for me, such as &#8220;diet&#8221; and &#8220;cheat day.&#8221; It&#8217;s made a huge difference in the way I approach my health.<br /> * Feature Presentation: The second of three auditions since my return to dance is what I share in this episode. I was reminded of the 5 following things:<br /> <br /> * Be flexible. However, if you are going to be late or there are a change of plans, try to give some notice as soon as possible.<br /> * Be clear in your communication.<br /> * Choreographers (or anything like jobs, projects, etc) are looking for something specific so if you are not chosen it&#8217;s not because there is something wrong with you as a person.<br /> * Don&#8217;t dwell on what you can&#8217;t control.<br /> * It&#8217;s okay to say no.

It&#8217;s great to get out of your normal routine. This session gives you my 5 key takeaways from my first time at Social Media Marketing World in San Diego, California as follows:<br /> <br /> * Connection, calm and presence over content. These words rang clearly for me to focus on because the content (strategies, tactics, etc) change and evolve but relationships will always be key.<br /> * Be aware of your energy levels and try to build in margin time.<br /> * Don&#8217;t give your card or info if someone isn&#8217;t asking for it.  Don&#8217;t force a connection that isn&#8217;t there.<br /> * Don&#8217;t succumb to FOMO-fear of missing out. Ask yourself before embarking on a new course, training, etc. &#8220;Is this just in case, or just in time?&#8221;  If it&#8217;s just in case, I would recommend saving it for another time.<br /> * Quit the comparison game. It&#8217;s not fair to yourself and others to compare two different timelines and experiences in two different journeys.<br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/125" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Session 125 on Overcoming Overwhelm</a><br /> Image: Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/IzmdWT2lW5Q?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Josefa nDiaz</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/search/photos/business?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a><br /> <a href="https://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/smmworld/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Social Media Marketing World</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

We also discuss other topics such as working for Steve Madden, how she prepares for performances, and more.<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://www.dancemagazine.com/dancing-with-jane-comfort-again-2514830361.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nancy Alfaro in Dance Magazine</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/nancy.alfaro.792197" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nancy Alfaro on Facebook</a><br /> <a href="https://twitter.com/nancyalfaro8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nancy Alfaro on Twitter</a><br /> <a href="http://janecomfortandcompany.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jane Comfort and Company</a><br /> <a href="http://stevemadden.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Steve Madden</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

That&#8217;s why I had to do it again.  It is all about getting out of my comfort zone and no longer having the regrets from 20+ years of giving up on myself.<br /> Session Summary:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.  Today’s step to success is using a pattern interrupt on your phone by scrambling the apps on your phone so that you can switch it up a bit.<br /> * Dancer’s Dialect: The Dancer’s Dialect is the dancer’s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today’s concept is based on this video, which reminded me that simple can still be spectacular in dance, life and business.<br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: Extremes in cleanliness and messiness often make me want to organize my own stuff.<br /> * Feature Presentation:  I&#8217;ve been back at dance for about 4 years after a 20+ year hiatus, and in these past 4 years, I&#8217;ve gone to 3 dance auditions. In this session, I share my first dance audition and the lessons that I was reminded of as follows:<br /> <br /> * 1. Do what you can with what you have.<br /> * 2. Mental attitude is everything&#8211;before, during and after.<br /> * 3. Learn and be around people that are more skilled at what you&#8217;re working on improving.<br /> * 4. Appreciate the experience regardless of the outcome.<br /> * 5. You are valuable.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

It&#8217;s your choice. There are things that you should quit such as thinking that you&#8217;re not enough, and putting too much importance on others&#8217; opinions, especially when they aren&#8217;t in alignment with your intuition.<br /> * I like recording live on location. It forces me to be present and not be concerned about editing. It pushes me out of my comfort zone.<br /> * It makes me want to keep trying new things and experiences.  Podcasting has propelled my perspectives to other things beyond podcasting.<br /> * I don&#8217;t have to listen to all the &#8220;popular&#8221; podcasts. I have gotten being better about FOMO (fear of missing out). Sometimes missing out is the best thing that can keep you moving forward.<br /> * It reminds me that I need to be more strategic about planning my content. And upon further thought, more strategic about other areas of my entrepreneurial journey.<br /> * Benefits of anything worthwhile are not always immediate.  You have to give yourself enough time to be consistent. One of the serendipities of podcasting is doing voiceovers for a highly rated business podcast.<br /> * Busy is not a badge of honor.  Busy is a decision.<br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/150">Listener Questions and Answers from Session #150</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/143">On location with Inland Pacific Ballet</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/146">On location with JanFam The Movement</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

This was both thought provoking and fun.<br /> Here are the listener questions and my answers:<br /> From Joey Cooper<br /> Why is dancing the answer?<br /> -It isn&#8217;t always the answer, but it is the answer for me. Why? Because it was a part of me that I gave up for 20+ years.  Resurrecting that part of me that I thought wasn&#8217;t important, was a critical choice I made in the last 4 years because it&#8217;s been the basis of everything that I get to experience today. Not only what it has taught me but what it has reminded me of things I had forgotten or need constant nudging on.<br /> <br /> What is it about dancing that makes it a vehicle for exploration?<br /> -It&#8217;s the possibility of employing all of the senses to explore, play and create. It&#8217;s allowing yourself the challenge of being vulnerable yet also testing your limits on control. It&#8217;s being able to use dance in different artistic and intellectual mediums.<br /> <br /> Do you feel dancing is a good teacher regarding life lessons?<br /> -I definitely feel that dancing is a good teacher regarding life lessons. That is part of the reason I started this podcast.<br /> <br /> What has been the most pivotal dance performance you&#8217;ve seen?<br /> -There are several, but the most recent one called, The Last One, by my two guests Anthony Nikolchev and Gema Galiana, I had on session #106.  I got to work with him a bit at a movement workshop a few months ago. Pivotal for me because it reminded me about trust and abandon in performance. It stirred more questions after I watched it and made me evaluate how much more I want to learn and dig deeper throughout my dance journey.<br /> <br /> Is there a common thread all of your guests share that you hadn&#8217;t realized aside from dancing?<br /> -It&#8217;s a common thread that I was reminded of, and that is the love for dance regardless of outside circumstances. It&#8217;s never been about the notoriety, the money, the security, or fame, but the pure passion for the art.<br /> <br /> From Grace Young-Grabham<br /> Knowing what you know now, how would you have approached training differently when you were in your 20&#8217;s?<br /> -So much I can say about this. 1. I wouldn&#8217;t have given it up completely. Like an all or nothing thing. 2. I would&#8217;ve spent more time developing my mental mindset 3. I would&#8217;ve been more strategic about the what, who and why? What classes I was taking, who I was taking from, and why?<br /> <br /> What advice would you give yourself (and others) with the experience you&#8217;ve gained?<br /> -Winning starts with beginning. If you want to get back to something you love doing or start something you want to gain proficiency at, start somewhere. It doesn&#8217;t have to be a monumental move, you can start with small steps and adjust as you go along. And don&#8217;t expect perfection and a linear journey. Life is linear but your journey is not, and that&#8217;s okay. Don&#8217;t let others or your perception of others deter you from what you want to do.<br /> <br /> From Nick Goblirsch<br /> <br /> When you create something, have you ever felt when all is finished, that your are sincerely disappointed on where you ended up, and if so, why?<br /> -When I did a performance at a high school assembly, I was disappointed and angry because I wasn&#8217;t satisfied with what I did.<br /> <br /> Where you felt you wanted to end up after the creative journey did not go according to plan?<br /> -This is my 20+ year hiatus from dance journey. I quit before I really gave myself a chance.<br /> <br /> From Lisa Castro<br /> <br /> What are your favorites? And why?&#8230;<br /> <br /> Movie of all time<br /> -One of them is Keeping the Faith because it&#8217;s funny, I love the scenes of New York and I relate to the references to Catholicism.<br /> #149: 7 Life Lessons from Lip Sync Battle [Podcast]Life lessons are all around, because that’s life!

I share 7 life lessons that I was reminded of at a recent live taping of the popular show Lip Sync Battle. I am so thankful for the evening of entertainment, inspiration and education.<br /> Session Summary:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.  Today&#8217;s step to success is emptying your trash from your email accounts, from the trash and spam folders to clear up storage space.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s concept is being clear on where your focus is. Check out these two awesome artists that I&#8217;m so blessed to work with on <a href="http://annettbone.com/121">Session #121</a>.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I didn&#8217;t take the description &#8220;cocktail attire&#8221; very seriously for a recent live performance. But it turned out fine and more important lessons were learned as discussed in the Feature Presentation.<br /> * Feature Presentation: I share 7 Lessons from attending <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lip_Sync_Battle" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lip Sync Battle</a>, a tribute to <a href="http://michaeljackson.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michael Jackson</a><br /> <br /> * 1. Confusion creates chaos.<br /> * 2. Assess what you might be taking too seriously or too casually in the different areas of your life.<br /> * 3. Be early and allot more time for things to accommodate margin.<br /> * 4. Honor and learn the history of the things and people that are important to you.<br /> * 5. Be mindful that what you do can so profoundly impact someone else&#8217;s life, just as Michael Jackson did with his life and career.<br /> * 6. Just as with this Lip Sync Battle event, there are competitions in life that are popularity contests, and that is the reality of it. However, it does not define you or your value.<br /> * 7. Engage and enjoy the times you indulge in entertainment.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="https://annettbone.com/063-2/">Knicole Haggins Interview</a><br /> <a href="https://variety.com/2017/tv/news/lip-sync-battle-michael-jackson-paramount-network-1202633618/#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lip Sync Battle</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

Don&#8217;t allow yourself to get overwhelmed the techniques, tools, people, software, etc that are available in the goal setting process.  Thank you Tom Tate for your article on Quarterly Theming as an alternative option to resolutions.<br /> * 3. Do allow yourself to indulge in the emotions of achieving these goals. Make it as sensory as possible.<br /> * 4. Don&#8217;t share goals with people that don&#8217;t directly affect the outcome.<br /> * 5. Do review 3 things that you did well in 2017.

Determine the current rhythm or what you would like it to be.<br /> * 2. Break your day into sections<br /> * 3. Find two or three highlights that would make your day have harmony.<br /> * 4. Have your ideal visuals all around you.<br /> * 5. If something is out of sync, shorten the time you dwell on it. Work on letting it pass.<br /> * 6. Recognize when the rhythm needs to change and adjust accordingly.<br /> * 7. Regardless of how you &#8220;perform&#8221; 1-6 above, you are still valuable and that is the most important thing to keep in mind as you are establishing rhythm throughout your day.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/100" target="_blank" rel="noopener">My trainer David Bagley on Session #100</a><br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/121" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Bagley and Derek Nemechek on Session #121</a><br /> Photo above by <a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/mg3kg1q7vdY?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Marion Michele</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

Today&#8217;s word is barrel turn or barrel row done in dance styles such as jazz, modern and tap. This is a 360 degree turn of the body while the arms are extended in a &#8220;windmill.&#8221; Check out this video:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: You know what they say about the word assume. We all do it and I share my recent experience at a dance studio about an assumption that a woman made about me.<br /> * Feature Presentation: Social media to me is like a multi-faceted creature that needs to tempered, entertained and sometimes tamed. Here are 5 social media tips that will keep you mindful:<br /> <br /> * Focus on building your own platform with your own domain. The platforms are owned by others, which means they can change the deal at anytime.  For example, I know many people that have had posts blocked, accounts deleted, etc. The same can go for specific types of businesses. Bottom line is to not put all of your eggs in one basket.<br /> * Determine the purpose of your post. Is it to add value? Are you wanting to generate sales or another call to action?<br /> * Add value before asking for a transaction. This is especially important if you&#8217;re selling something.<br /> * Pay attention to what is working for you. It might not be the same as it is for others.<br /> * Balance live posting with scheduling your posts via tools. There is a time and place for automation.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://lionelrichie.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lionel Richie</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

Determine what platforms you will utilize such as podcasts, blogs, videos, speaking engagements, and workshops to name a few.<br /> * 2. Be yourself and tell stories that will relate to your audience.<br /> * 3. If possible, provide guarantees and testimonials on your products and services.<br /> * 4. You need to be okay with the fact that not everyone will know, like and trust you.  This is not a popularity contest.<br /> * 5.

I was able to get extended time with three awesome podcasters <a href="http://superjoepardo.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Super Joe Pardo</a>, <a href="http://thedependentindependent.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nick Goblirsch</a> and <a href="http://memyselfandiradio.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anthony Hayes</a><br /> * Be kind wherever you go. Kindness goes a long way.<br /> * Pack as lightly as possible.<br /> * The main theme throughout the conference was embracing your authentic message through podcasting. Don’t try to be, simply be. This is also important in networking.<br /> * Determine how you define connection. Staying in touch with social media? Waiting till another event? How is your follow up process?<br /> * If a situation is draining you, remove yourself from it even if you can only do it temporarily.<br /> * It’s not your job to try and make everyone like you. It’s your job to honor yourself and to connect with those whom you are supposed to make a connection with.<br /> * Ask yourself:What is the quickest way to implement after you’ve learned? What makes the most sense to do next?<br /> * Define your outcomes before attending the event.<br /> * Take confident ownership of who you are and the value you bring.<br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://podcastmidatlantic.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MAPCON 2017</a><br /> <a href="https://superjoepardo.com/dreamers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Dreamers Podcast</a><br /> <a href="http://thedependentindependent.com/podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Dependent Independent Podcast</a><br /> <a href="http://memyselfandiradio.com/podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">My Myself and I Radio</a><br /> <a href="http://ashtanga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ashtanga Yoga</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher Radio.

Today&#8217;s word is chance, a choreographic process in which movements are chosen at random or randomly structured to create a movement sequence or a dance.<br /> Freestyle Flow: I am not a fan of the follow me/unfollow me game on Instagram.<br /> Feature Presentation: Two distinct styles and approaches.  One brought a heightened sense of euphoria. The other was spiritual and meditative. Both were enjoyable. In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I quickly review lessons learned from two performances and the lessons I learned from them as follows:<br /> Bellydance Evolution&#8217;s fusion of dance, acrobatics and more for their production of Alice In Wonderland at The El Portal Theater in North Hollywood was entertaining. It was one of those performances where I was so entertained that I hardly noticed the technique.  My limited knowledge of bellydance had me thinking non-stop shimmies but I soon learned that the art of bellydance is more than that.  I loved the audience participation.<br /> <br /> Butterfly, the fragrant flower path, was beautifully done by the Korean Traditional Dance Institute of LA. It took me back to my memories of wearing a Korean <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy human tramadol online</a> dress when I was younger. I appreciated that the costumes were not about showing the body. I loved the focus on cultural honor and diversity.  Several Korean traditional dance forms, and spoken word with song (in Korean of course) like Pansori, a Korean oral tradition of storytelling that combines singing, narration, movement, drumming, drama and solos with swords were fascinating to watch.<br /> <br /> Dance, Life and Business Lessons:<br /> <br /> * Just as Bellydance Evolution&#8217;s production fused different dance styles, use different mediums to promote your projects and business, whether social media or something else.<br /> * People want to be encouraged, inspired and entertained and this was accomplished by both of these shows. How can you do this for your project or business?<br /> * Always look for ways to improve. There was one section where the hip hop in the Bellydance Evolution production looked awkward.<br /> * Patience is something that we always need to be reminded of. Delicate movements in the Korean traditional dances as well as the simplicity of movement by the Oaxacan dancers required patience, from both the performers and the audience.<br /> * What are the things you want to be known for? I noticed for the traditional Korean dance pieces, they always started facing back to the audience and a lot of their movements descended to the ground.<br /> <br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/420100618331939/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Join my private Facebook Group, The DancePreneuring Collective</a><br /> <a href="http://www.nojetlag.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">No Jet Lag Homeopathic</a><br /> <a href="http://bellydanceevolution.com/gallery/photos/alice-in-wonderland/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bellydance Evolution</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.#118: Messages, Moments and Memories [Podcast]Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters.  Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome.  Terrify and terrific.  Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation. -Alan Cohen- Session Summary This past month has been full of messages, moments and memories.

I&#8217;m glad I was wrong about my first impression about the production of &#8220;Paradise Lost-Reclaiming Destiny&#8221; a production by No Man Apart that was a feast for the senses. I share 5 things <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol buy online cheap</a> that I got from watching this performance as follows:<br /> <br /> * First impressions are not accurate sometimes.<br /> * Formula: Effort + Energy = Excitement and Effort + Excitement = Energy. It&#8217;s the Triple &#8220;E&#8221; Effect that you can apply to dance or anything else.<br /> * In dance and business, what are you trying to say?

These words also describe the performance of Ole Flamenco that I recently experienced at The Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles.  The jaleo that is part of the flamenco performance can easily be applied to dance, life and business.  How?

The lessons I was reminded of from &#8220;The Last One&#8221; were pay attention to silence and stillness, expect some element of unpredictability, and you can always rebuild if you&#8217;ve been broken down.<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="http://galianaandnikolchev.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GalianaandNikolchev.com</a><br /> <a href="http://theodysseytheatre.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Odyssey Theatre</a><br /> <a href="http://www.johnisaacwatters.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Isaac Watters</a><br /> <a href="http://www.pina-bausch.de/en/pina_bausch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pina Bausch</a><br /> <a href="http://www.ultimavez.com/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ultima Vez</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

I told him I like to collect experiences.<br /> * Feature Presentation: Your mindset can be molded however you choose.  In this week&#8217;s session, I dispel 7 myths about mindset as follows-<br /> <br /> * Myth 1: You have to wait for inspiration to strike to have a great mindset.<br /> * Myth 2: Your personality determines your mindset.<br /> * Myth 3: Your circumstances controls your mindset. Stop waiting for the perfect conditions. Start somewhere.<br /> * Myth 4: You need to become like Pollyanna and ignore things hoping they will go away on their own.<br /> * Myth 5: You need external affirmation to accelerate. Not everyone is going to approve of you or understand what you&#8217;re doing, and you need to be okay with that. You cannot please everyone, nor should you want to.<br /> * Myth 6: You have to adopt a popular mindset. If everyone is doing it, must be good? Not always the case.<br /> * Myth 7: If you have a setback or a plateau, you failed and you don&#8217;t have the proper mindset.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Question: What myth can you dispel about mindset?<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galliard" target="_blank">Gaillard</a><br /> <a href="http://pokemon.com" target="_blank">Pokemon</a><br /> <a href="http://minecraft.net" target="_blank">Minecraft</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

It is a place of synergy. It is a place of blood, sweat, tears and pushing boundaries. It is also place of frustration and heartache. I&#8217;ve experienced all of these and I take all of it in, because I was away from the place and not doing the thing that gave me so much joy. Debbie Reynolds who sadly passed away this week created a community for dancers, a haven where all of this is experienced and will <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy discount tramadol</a> continue being experienced. Looking at what she did reminded me of the following lessons from her legacy:<br /> <br /> <br /> * Created a place for dancers to create.<br /> * The studio has longevity as it&#8217;s been going strong since 1979.<br /> * The studio attracts the top names in the dance and entertainment field.<br /> * Community is present within and outside the dance studio.<br /> * The studio fosters appreciation for the art of dance.<br /> <br /> Link:<br /> <a href="http://drdancestudio.com" target="_blank">Debbie Reynolds Dance Studio</a><br /> Question: What am I doing to create a legacy?

I share dance concepts and terminology across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s word is a step called jitting, something I came across looking for info on House dance, based on an awesome class I took from the super Jackie Lopez at Evolution Dance Studios in North Hollywood.  Check out this video:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: Tests are not the final authority on your intelligence but they are helpful in assessing how you would best handle situations and amplifying your skill set.<br /> * Feature Presentation: Competition can be the catalyst for creativity, community and camaraderie.

One of my favorite dance teams in the competition, Blank Canvas, has a mission statement as follows: &#8220;Our bodies are the brushes, the music is our paint, the dance floor is our canvas, and the light is our faith.&#8221;<br /> * Be purposeful with your content.<br /> * You&#8217;re only as strong as your weakest link. Do what is necessary to make sure that all your team members embody outstanding work ethics and attitudes.<br /> * Find out what your audience wants and deliver it to them. What does your business audience want? Find out and create it for them whether it&#8217;s a course, audio, workshop, etc.<br /> * Find the areas where you can simplify and clean up.<br /> * Watch your words. Communication is everything.<br /> * Create and cultivate camaraderie.<br /> * Bonus business lesson: Pay attention to how you start and how you end.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Question: What life or business event have you learned the most from?<br /> Links from this session:<br /> <a href="http://www.happinessisnow.org/brdg-2016-results.html" target="_blank">Bridge Dance Competition</a><br /> Jackie Lopez&#8217; <a href="http://versastyledance.org/dance-classes/" target="_blank">House Class at Evolution Dance Studios</a><br /> <a href="http://convertkit.com" target="_blank">Convertkit</a><br /> <a href="http://tech.co/myers-briggs-personality-type-likely-earn-higher-income-2015-04" target="_blank">Myers-Briggs Test</a><br /> <a href="https://discpersonalitytesting.com/free-disc-test/" target="_blank">DISC Profile</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

The word can conjure up a variety of images, and in this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I dispel the 7 most common myths surrounding what it really means to be a dancer.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that will help you succeed.  Today&#8217;s step to success is establishing a stop time for your work to prevent burnout.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share 5 trips that everyone can, and should, take.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that will help you succeed.  This week&#8217;s step to success is a book on the importance of self-talk called <a href="http://amzn.to/1W7leuC" target="_blank">The Self-Talk Solution by Shad Helmstetter.</a>  It&#8217;s not all about positive self-talk, but self-management and self-direction.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share concepts and terminology across different genres so that you can see the correlations in your life and in your business. The word for today is plie.  This foundational step is important for jumps, pirouette preparation, transitions, strength building, and injury prevention. Whether in dance or business, don&#8217;t overlook the basics or simple things because they are the foundation to build upon more <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy generic tramadol no prescription</a> complex things.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: Things are not what they seem, and that includes eavesdropping on other&#8217;s conversations. I share my recent experience at <a href="http://snowbirdcoffee.com/" target="_blank">Snowbird Coffee</a> in Phoenix, Arizona of trying a delicious coffee concoction called Nitro and how people can misinterpret what they hear.<br /> * Feature Presentation: There are 5 trips that everyone needs to take, no budget required:<br /> 1. A trip outside your comfort zone.<br /> 2. A trip to the unknown.<br /> 3. A spontaneous trip.<br /> 4. A trip in someone else&#8217;s shoes, so that you can fine tune your compassion and empathy meter.<br /> 5. A trip inside yourself via silence, solitude and meditation.

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share some practical tips on exercise, healthy eating and organizing projects.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that will help you succeed. Today&#8217;s step to success is optimizing your bio on your Instagram profile. Make sure you include your name and website, emoji&#8217;s, your other social profile handles, and hashtags. <a href="http://blog.later.com/drive-traffic-to-your-website-with-your-instagram-bio/" target="_blank">Click here</a> to check out this helpful article.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.

Use food substitutes such as stevia for sweetener.<br /> 2. Use parks instead of expensive gym memberships.<br /> 3. If you&#8217;re waiting in line, use the time to read or take notes.<br /> 4. Use stairs or steps for workouts and if you&#8217;re really short on time as you&#8217;re doing errands, use them instead of elevators or escalators.<br /> 5. Use pillows if you don&#8217;t have access to a BOSU ball for myotatic crunches as explained in the <a href="http://amzn.to/24yDjGU" target="_blank">4 Hour Body from Tim Ferriss.</a><br /> 6.

In the latest session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share 7 similarities between the two sports.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that will help you succeed.  Today&#8217;s step to success is a setting on your iPhone called Nightshift that cuts down on the blue light exposure as the day progresses because it can affect your circadian rhythm and melatonin levels as you&#8217;re winding down.  This word also reminded me of a 1985 song from The Commodores called Nightshift so of course, I had to share this video (especially for those who weren&#8217;t even born during the 80&#8217;s lol):<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share concepts and terminology across different genres so that you can see the correlations in your life and in your business. The word for today is Charleston Dance Step. Interesting that step was considered scandalous back in the 1920&#8217;s.  Check out this video:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: A friend of mine recently introduced me to something quite exquisite on a recent trip to the Abbott Kinney area in Los Angeles and we stumbled upon Intellgentsia Coffee. Turns out he&#8217;s quite the coffee snob. But I get it now! He told me that there was one place he went to that the cup of coffee was so good&#8211;no cream, no sugar or anything additional needed, and it tasted like he was having a blueberry muffin from a cup. Yum!  He did warn me that it can be hit or miss and that it&#8217;s best to drink the beverage immediately so you can taste the different aspects of the coffee. I noticed that the flavors were more distinguishable and the tastes did change as the coffee cooled. When I get interested in different subjects, I start researching so I found info on a coffee convention and looked up different pour over places in the surrounding areas.<br /> * Feature Presentation: A recent spontaneous outing to Dodger Stadium got me thinking about 7 similarities between ballet and baseball as follows:<br /> <br /> 1. People like to be entertained, whether baseball or something else, and in my case, it&#8217;s almost anything dance and art related.<br /> 2. There are die hard fans who know all the facts and have the memorabilia related to their interests.<br /> 3. There is significance in celebrating pioneers in your field. In this case it was Jackie Robinson day and dance history is preserved and celebrated when ballets by choreographers such as George Balanchine are performed.<br /> 4. Professionals make performance look effortless. On the outfield you don&#8217;t realize when you you&#8217;re in the stadium how much ground the players have to cover. With dance, it can look easy but you don&#8217;t realize what it took to get to that point.<br /> 5. Fans love interactive experiences. In this case, we got to go out onto the field to watch the fireworks. They were also giving out free shirts with Jackie Robinson&#8217;s number to commemorate this day in history.  In dance, it can be the opportunity to take a company class with the members or meet the artistic director of the dance company.<br /> 6. No matter how many times you watch a game or performance, you still love the sport.<br /> 7. The venue gives a sense of community. In baseball it can be the smells of stadium food such as popcorn and seeing the vendors go up and down the aisles, the wave from the crowd, the cameras. In a theater, it could be the lights, the sets, the orchestra pit and the mere anticipation of waiting for a performance to start.<br /> Question: What do you enjoy most about events that you go to?<br /> #065: The Power of Positive Mentorship [Podcast]Believe in yourself.  There isn’t anything that really stops you but you.

It is an easy way to keep track of all the text and links that you clip in one place.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share concepts and terminology across different genres so that you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s word in the dancer&#8217;s dialect is Chicago Footwork, which has footwork that moves very quickly.  It looks like it combines house footwork, tap dancing and breakdancing footwork. It&#8217;s one style I haven&#8217;t tried but I look forward to the challenge. Check out this cool video of various basic Chicago Footwork steps, and the Mike and Ike is one of the steps.  I love that you can have this flurry of activity of footwork, but still have it clean and controlled. As my dance trainer says, a clean dancer is a strong dancer.<br /> <br /> <br /> And the running man in Chicago Footwork is different from the running man in Bobby Brown&#8217;s video:<br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow:  I was thinking about teaching methods and The Karate Kid &#8220;Wax On/Wax Off&#8221; scene came to mind. It also got me thinking about teachers in my school years that made a positive impression on me.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: 10 Hacks to be a Better Dancer as follows:<br /> <br /> 1. List 5 qualities of your best dancing skills and remind yourself of these. Are you good at a certain style or technical step? Focus and remind yourself of those constantly.<br /> 2. Meditate on performing without limitations. What would be the best performance?  My friend Tarek Khwiss, told me this as I was preparing for my first <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy real tramadol</a> performance in over 20 years: &#8220;Do my best in the moment.  It&#8217;s just me and the stage, no one else.  Live in the story I&#8217;m telling.&#8221; He&#8217;s a gem and you&#8217;ll love his <a href="http://annettbone.com/043" target="_blank">interview</a>.<br /> 3. Take time to do intentional breathing.<br /> 4. Work on your core before class. Not just regular crunches but get all areas of the abdominal region.<br /> 5. Do 5-10 minutes of cardio before class.<br /> 6.Drink water before class as well as during and after. Drink water first thing in the morning with 1 tbsp of raw apple cider vinegar.<br /> 7. Remind yourself of what foundations the style of class or choreography calls for and tell your body to occupy those foundations. Some examples: Ballet and most styles require to engage your core but not by sucking the abdominal area in.  It&#8217;s more of a lifting up and in, and scooping from the inside out. Styles such as hip hop and dance hall are very grounded.  And as you saw on Chicago footwork, you have to be light on your feet.<br /> 8. Focus on one aspect each time you are going through the step or the choreography. Is it the musicality? Is it the accents? Is it foot placement?<br /> 9. Even if the class doesn&#8217;t accommodate it, make time to cool your mind and body down.<br /> 10. Take quick notes as soon as possible after the class on any new concepts you&#8217;ve learned, things that stuck out, and what you can work on next time.<br /> Question: What hack would you share that would make you a better dancer?<br /> Links to This Session:<br /> <a href="http://jumpcut.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">Jumpcut</a><br /> <a href="http://www.imdb.#063: Remembering Your Roots and Developing Your Craft [Podcast]Money doesn’t make the artist, the craft does.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward. Today&#8217;s step is crafting a simple mission statement.  A mission statement needs to be clear and concise, and answer the following questions:<br /> <br /> What do you do?<br /> How do you do it?<br /> Who do you do it for?<br /> What value are you bringing?<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: What do coffee and helicopters have to do with each other? Not much but they are related to dance.  How? They have to do with breakdancing. Today&#8217;s step in the dancer&#8217;s dialect is a move called the coffee grinder or the helicopter and you are sweeping one leg over the other.<br /> <br /> Freestyle Flow: I was with a group of people who had made it past the initial audition process for a popular talent show, and even after their hour long interviews, they were still talking..about themselves and who they knew and who they worked with. I am all about associating yourself with successful people that you admire, however, when you are monopolizing conversations with name dropping and every sentence begins with the word &#8220;I&#8221; then clearly it&#8217;s all about you.<br /> <br /> * <br /> Feature Presentation: 5 Insights from Inversions<br /> 1. Be intentional <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol no prescription</a> about how you start something.  The importance of the power of visualization.  From an article in <a href="http://www.success.com/article/why-your-attitude-is-everything#sthash.dDhAptaQ.dpuf" target="_blank">Success Magazine</a>: Studies of the psychology of peak performance have found that most great athletes, surgeons, engineers and artists use affirmations and visualizations either consciously or subconsciously to enhance and focus their skills. Nelson Mandela has written extensively on how visualization helped him maintain a positive attitude while being imprisoned for 27 years. “I thought continually of the day when I would walk free. I fantasized about what I would like to do,” he wrote in his autobiography. Visualization works well to improve attitude.<br /> 2.Use fear as a compass and direction. Don&#8217;t be fearless, but have understanding.<br /> 3.There are steps and sequences to everything so even if you think you know, it&#8217;s always good to review where to start and where to end.<br /> 4. Think of something unique to reward your clients. In this inversion workshop, I was very happy to have essential oils sprayed on me and candles all around the room as we were winding down. Some of the yoga studios I go to reward their clients through points accrued through <a href="https://www.perkville.com/" target="_blank">Perkville</a>.<br /> 5. Be that reassuring person and find supportive environments to help you thrive.<br /> <br /> Question: I&#8217;d love to hear about an experience that started well and ended well.<br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio. It really helps if you do it through the native Apple Podcast App on your smart device.

Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.  Video Speed Controller is a free extension on the Chrome browser that speeds up, slows down, advances and rewinds any HTML5 video with quick shortcuts.  For me, I find that I stay more focused and retain better when I&#8217;m able to speed up the video. I do this with the podcasts that I listen to, and you&#8217;ll find that if you revert back to the normal speed of playing, it seems really slow.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  It seems like the words humble and warrior don&#8217;t go together right? Well, they do and the word for today in the dancer&#8217;s dialect is humble warrior. This term is actually used in Yoga, but this stretch is used in different dance classes as part of a warm up. You want to make sure you are warm as with any stretch to get the most out of it and for injury prevention. You are in a lunge position, ideally with your back leg straight and pulled up off the floor, engaging your muscles, and your forearms and elbows are on the floor. In Yoga, it&#8217;s described as a pose with surrender and strength.  Being a warrior is not always about aggression and force. Strength can still come from moments of stillness.  Post Note: I was told <a href="http://yoga.about.com/od/yogaphotogalleries/ig/Standing-Poses-Photo-Gallery/Pyramid-Pose.htm" target="_blank">this </a>is a humble warrior, when it actually is called a lizard pose. If anyone knows for sure, I would love clarification : )<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I was at another tv show taping as an audience member and I met this woman who was supposedly a screenwriter. I say supposedly because the name she gave me was different from the name she had given when she was called out, so I do give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe she didn&#8217;t want her real name revealed, however, she told me she was in the process of writing a screenplay. Our conversation started with what she knew about the tv show we were at (of course I had no idea who or what was in it and what it was about) and how she liked it, etc.  When I introduced myself to her, she gave me this surprised look, and told me that the main character in her screenplay is named Annett (but with an e at the end). She proceeded to tell me that she only writes when she is inspired. There is probably more to her process than that, but it got me thinking that if we all waited to do things only when we feel inspired, then a lot of things would not get done.  I think that inspiration does come out of the blue, but in the doing of day to day consistent <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol uk</a> application, inspiration and creativity is also birthed. There are times when we don&#8217;t feel like doing certain things, but we know that they are necessary for progression. And some of those times when we least feel like doing, is when we have the biggest breakthroughs.<br /> * Feature Presentation: I remember when I was in elementary school, Aliamanu Elementary School in Hawaii and we had those cubbies to put our stuff in. They looked exactly like the ones you see in the IKEA furniture stores. And as the cover, we had to make our name into an acronym on cardstock paper.#058: What I Learned from a Simple Conversation and a Sitcom [Podcast]To live everyday is to love everyday, despite the circumstances.

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I am reminded of 7 lessons from a simple conversation and a sitcom.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: So who likes to drive in traffic? I don&#8217;t, but if it happens, then I want to know how long I will be in it, and if there are alternate routes to lessen the time. Today&#8217;s step to success is an app that I recently started using called <a href="https://www.waze.com/" target="_blank">Waze</a>. I usually use Google Maps and I thought that was fine until I started using the Waze app.<br /> This free app alerts you to police, cars on the shoulder of the road, how long you will be in traffic.<br /> So yes, there are waze around traffic.<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: Soutenu is used in both ballet and jazz and means to support and draw one leg evenly to the other done in place with a half or whole turn, outwards or inwards. Check out this video of a soutenu turn.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * It was a simple reminder me that having a foundation and strong support whether in dance, business or other relationships, is so important in your personal and professional growth.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I almost got punched. I haven&#8217;t been in a fist fight since 5th or 6th grade in Hawaii. And someone wanted to start a physical fight with me.  She wasn&#8217;t shy about saying she wanted to kick my &#8220;a double s&#8221;<br /> I thought okay, if necessary, I will <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">buy cipro 750 mg</a> defend myself.  I was standing behind her on a shuttle at a sitcom taping and I accidentally stepped on the back of her shoe. I apologized and forgot about it but she didn&#8217;t.<br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation:<br /> <br /> <br /> * It takes a team working together to run something effectively.  From the cameramen, to the makeup artists for each of the actors, and all of these other people standing around, they all needed to work together.<br /> * Everyone plays an important part.<br /> * If you&#8217;re not patient, learn patience.<br /> * You learn a lot about people by observing, even if you&#8217;re not in direct conversation with them.  Be interested in others though.<br /> * Everyone has different reasons for doing things and that&#8217;s okay. Some people are there for the money, the hopes of being discovered, some are retired and want something to do, some are people who are visiting from out of town and wanted to experience that part of show business, and me, I wanted it as a case study.<br /> * Learn to laugh at yourself.<br /> * Live and love everyday.<br /> <br /> Changing one letter from i to o gives more meaning to both of these statements. Live every moment. Love every moment. Love people.<br /> Question: What does it mean to you to live everyday?<br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that will help you succeed.  I have this love hate relationship with social media. Do you? I love technology and all its possibilities but I have to unplug sometimes from the noise of all the media that is available, and I don&#8217;t even watch tv. So much information!<br /> <br /> Well, I have a secret to share on social media.  Can you keep a secret? That really isn&#8217;t a secret. When Pinterest first came out, I was very intrigued and obsessed with it. I took a course and immediately implemented what I learned. Then I got burnt out and I never touched Pinterest again.<br /> <br /> Now, I access Pinterest quite a bit, although I haven&#8217;t pinned or created any boards, I look at HIIT and Kettlebell workouts, recipes, haircuts, health information, yoga clothes and now, I am in the process of creating a secret board for my vision board. My goals right now are in written form but I know the importance of having visuals as well.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://growingsocialbiz.com/use-pinterests-secret-boards-10-ways-10-things-to-know/" target="_blank">Check out this resource </a>on 10 Things to Know About Secret Pinterest Boards.  You can have an unlimited number of secret boards and use them for personal and business for gathering ideas, and collaborating on projects.<br /> <br /> Yes, I do have a love hate relationship with social media. But I am excited to incorporate this great tool.<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.  I share dance terminology across different genres so that you can see the correlations in your life and business.  I embrace new experiences, even if they&#8217;re uncomfortable.  In a recent jazz class that I took there was a step in our progressions across the floor, termed &#8220;over the log&#8221; which I have seen the technical step in tap called &#8220;over the top,&#8221; but I had never done it. That&#8217;s what usually happens when I take more advanced level classes, there is more often than not something I haven&#8217;t tried or learned, and then it goes on my goals <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol with no prescription needed</a> list to learn how to do it.  Check out this video of the tap step that is similar to what we did in jazz class.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This reminded me again of how important it is to continually get out of your comfort zone, go over the log or over the top, because that is where you will grow. Check out this great article from <a href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/251594" target="_blank">Entrepreneur.com</a> on why you need to step out of your comfort zone and here is an important excerpt as follows:<br /> <br /> Dr. Elizabeth Lombardo, therapist and author of Better Than Perfect, says people who regularly seek out fresh experiences tend to be more creative and emotionally resilient than those who remain stuck in routine.<br /> “Breaking your own mold can only make you stronger and more confident to reach higher levels in your professional and personal life,” she says.<br /> Innovation, she says, happens when we step outside our comfort zone. Being stagnant in routine often results in plummeting creativity. “In order to be more creative, you have to try new things, see things in a new way,  and put pieces together in a new manner.”<br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: Listen to this session as I describe my coffee cup mixup experien...#056: 5 Things I've Stopped Doing in Dance [Podcast]Session Summary Step to Success:  A step to your success is anything that moves your life and your business forward.  Whether it’s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something to today that will help you succeed.

Being mindful and present. This is an everyday thing to focus on in every situation.<br /> 3. Being your own teacher first. Innately you are wired to know what to do.<br /> 4. Reminders to not sit or sink into the poses but get out of your joints. The poses, although static, are very active.<br /> Check out this <a href="http://www.capemovement.com/yoga-hacks-2/" target="_blank">important resource</a> on how not to mess up your knees and hips in Yoga from Monika Volkmar, who I had the pleasure of interviewing on <a href="http://annettbone.com/040" target="_blank">Session #040</a><br /> 5. Breath is more important to transition properly into the movements.<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  The word for today is lofting. I was recently at a birthday party/dance party/fundraiser and it has been ages since I have been in a club environment. It was inspiring for me to enjoy the music, watch some innovative freestyle dancing and get out of the studio to experience something different.  Because it was mostly house music that was played,  it got me thinking about different styles of house dancing and I came across lofting, which I had not heard of.<br /> <br /> According to <a href="http://www.housedancer.com/the-news/legacy-of-the-loft-dance-style-online" target="_blank">housedancer.com </a>and the Legacy of The Loft Dance Style:<br /> <br /> &#8220;Lofting is the term used to describe a very smooth, and sensual “Freestyle” form of dancing that is said to have originated at a Legendary underground dance party known as The Loft (began 1970?s, NYC) hosted by David Mancuso.<br /> <br /> Today Lofting borrows from much of what The Lofters did in their early days, from grooving to the melody of dance music, gracefully transitioning from one movement into the next without breaks as if one is simply dancing through the beats rather than directly on it. Lofting is a unique “Freestyle” form of dancing that welcomes many styles of movement while keeping true to it’s fluid, graceful essence.&#8221;<br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: Uber got creative again and in conjunction with animal shelters across the country, offered to deliver puppy playtime for $30 for 15 minutes. How cute is that? : )<br /> * Feature Presentation:  It&#8217;s just as important to stop doing <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol</a> things as it is to start doing things in the progress and accomplishment of your goals.  How are you doing on your goals for 2016? We are in a new month and it&#8217;s important to track as you go along. I remind myself as I go through my different checklists each day, that what gets measured gets improved. But don&#8217;t be discouraged, you can still start because it&#8217;s all about moving forward.<br /> There are 5 things I&#8217;ve stopped doing in dance to continue my progress.<br /> 1. I&#8217;ve stopped taking multiple classes back to back. Initially I took everything and anything, even if I didn&#8217;t like the class, because I thought that would make me better and it some respects, it has, but sometimes quantity does not mean quality.

Why am I liking this art form?<br /> Arnel Calvario, Founder of Kaba Modern, President of Culture Shock LA and Culture Shock International, and from the Kinjaz<br /> <br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: Today&#8217;s step to success is a book I recently read called Art &amp; Fear, Observations on The Perils (And Rewards) of Artmaking by David Bayles, recommended by my dance trainer, and this book would have come in so handy many years ago.  This book talks about how art gets made, why it doesn&#8217;t get made whether it&#8217;s out of fear or something else, and the difficulties that artists go through in the creative process. I definitely resonated with this book and was very encouraged by it. Art, whether it&#8217;s dance or something else, takes consistent and persistent action, and not everything you create will just magically happen. But in the process of the consistent and persistent action, the frustrations, something wonderful can be created.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: There are times when I am taking dance classes, that I feel so excited about concepts that I am learning and experiencing the results of my efforts. The most recent ballet classes I took were fulfilling because first and foremost, I am grateful for the opportunity to take class and learn. Secondly, when I can take a correction, apply it and see it manifest, it is gratifying. At the barre when we were balancing in passe, the teacher was talking about the difference between stacking so that everything <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">buy ciprofloxacin 500mg</a> aligns versus muscling through the movements. She referred to younger dancers who can work on that without using extra muscular strength for certain movements, and to take advantage of that, and in contrast, using Misty Copeland as an example who muscles her way through her dancing. You can do both, but she was emphasizing effort economy, meaning use the effort necessary for execution, and don&#8217;t expend unnecessary energy. Stacking vs packing is what I call it.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: What does snowboarding have to do with ballet? Nothing, until I caught a segment of the X games and there was an interview with Iouri Podladtchikov, multiple X games medalist.  He was talking about what he could do in the off season to improve his snowboarding, and he said that he did ballet.

In this week&#8217;s session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share 7 Serendipities from Struggles.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: A step to your success is anything that moves your life and business forward.  Whether it&#8217;s an app, a book or an idea, you can apply something today that can help you succeed.<br /> Reading is so important for personal growth.  Reading short meditations that align with your goals are very effective in keeping you focused.  I have declarations and meditations that I read every morning and evening. It sets the day on the right precedent and I end the day with positive things to ponder. I used to do this years ago, but didn&#8217;t see results from it because I didn&#8217;t know where to apply it. I don&#8217;t know why I thought magically just reciting words would manifest but there needs to be application to set these words in motion.  It&#8217;s one thing to be frustrated in not seeing results, but what can be more frustrating is not knowing the purpose of your action and application.<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect:  The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the the dancer&#8217;s language.  I share dance terminology and concepts across different genres so you can see the correlation in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s word in the Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is port de bras.<br /> Port de bras, in ballet, means carriage of the arms.   According to the <a href="http://www.abt.org/education/dictionary/terms/port_bras.html" target="_blank">American Ballet Theatre dictionary</a>, the term port de bras has two meanings: (1) A movement or series of movements made by passing the arm or arms through various positions. The passage of the arms from one position to another constitutes a port de bras. (2) A term for a group of exercises designed to make the arms move gracefully and harmoniously.   In all of my years of ballet training, I was always taught to hold my back tightly engage the lats in my back, and extend the arms, but never, at least I don&#8217;t remember, not only about engaging your back to hold, but extending the energy out through the arms and finger tips.<br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: I am loving Thrive Market. It&#8217;s like an online Costco for healthy, organic items at a discount. I found out about Thrive Market from a friend and I finally did my first order. I loved how neatly everything was packaged, how quickly my order came, and the free item I got, which was a jar of coconut oil which was timely because I use that everyday.  The prices are comparable and less <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">cipro 250 mg</a> than what I normally pay for items I get so I thought why not. My second order  included reusable cups. I love free things. I also loved the packaging, it&#8217;s green and clean. And, I thought it was a cute touch on the packing slip that a handwritten thank you<br /> was written with a smiley face. It&#8217;s all the little things that make customers appreciate your company and come back for more.<br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation:  Struggles, we all have them right? That&#8217;s life and it&#8217;s a constant ebb and flow between struggles and victories.  I was thinking about this the other day and I have often said that as much as there have been things in my life that I hated going through, I wouldn&#8217;t change them because I&#8217;ve learned so much and I wouldn&#8217;t be here at this special moment in my life right now.  Here are 7 serendipities from struggles:<br /> <br /> 1. There is always something to be learned.<br /> 2. You learn that there is a difference between joy and happiness. Joy is internal, happiness results from circumstances,#053: Connecting The Mind, Body and Soul Through Dance [Podcast]Connecting the mind, body and soul through dance makes movement meaningful.   A deep connection of dance from within and extending out to express, is what it’s about in this week’s session of The DancePreneuring Studio.

What I mean by that is that after focused, concentrated effort, I need to let it go for a time period, come back to it, and then I have new ideas and applications. I used to feel I couldn&#8217;t take breaks and sometimes I still feel that way, but I am finding this approach is more effective. Check out this <a href="http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/mental-downtime/" target="_blank">article</a> from Scientific American that talks about the importance of breaks.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: Kick ball change was one of the first technical steps that I learned when I first started taking jazz class when I was 14 years old in Guam.  I remember being so excited and proud to learn a technical step. I used to go around my house doing this step. Check out this video so you can see how simple a kick ball change is.<br /> <br /> Regardless of its simplicity, I felt so accomplished. This reminded me to remember the excitement of learning something new and I get this way a lot now as I am working on different <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">order cipro 500 mg</a> things in dancing, doing other conditioning or hot yoga.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I am so glad the timing for the release of this interview worked out because The Haus of Royals, the dance company of my featured guest Ricky Alvarez, will be a part of a production from Halo Dance for Autism this upcoming weekend on Saturday, January 23rd 2016. This organization utilizes the art of dance to promote awareness, knowledge, and funding for professional support to families affected by autism. I have linked their site below.  If you are in the Southern California area, it&#8217;s in Orange County showtimes at 1 and 5pm.  Tickets start at $20. If you can&#8217;t attend, check out their site as they take donations as well. Again, this wonderful art of dance is the medium used to give to a worthy cause.<br /> * Feature Presentation:  I love these conversations!

It hasn&#8217;t been the easiest thing because I do pretty much everything myself.  I&#8217;ve learned so much and I&#8217;ve had some insightful conversations with some amazing creatives.<br /> <br /> So I wanted to quickly share 10 Things I Learned From A Year of Podcasting<br /> <br /> 1.  You don&#8217;t have to be perfect before you start.  I never thought I would be a podcaster.  I was the shy, self conscious girl that was so nervous to speak that I had to rehearse several times as my heart would palpitate and I would get so anxious, just to pick up the phone and order a pizza. When I was in Kindergarten moving to Texas from Korea and learning English, I had to take special speech classes. They weren&#8217;t necessarily ESL classes but I had a pretty bad lisp so that had to be worked on. So, it&#8217;s better to start somewhere and make improvements along the way than wait for everything to be perfect.<br /> <br /> 2.  Schedule out blocks of time to get what you need to get done. You need to put it in your calendar with times. It cannot just be a random checklist. Give yourself reasonable deadlines.  You will feel so accomplished when you complete these items. That goes for pretty much everything for me these days. I continue to build my self confidence by being accountable to me first.<br /> <br /> 3.  Be prepared that things take longer than you anticipate. I ran into several technical snags that I couldn&#8217;t figure out so I enlisted help and even that took longer than I would&#8217;ve liked. But the important thing is to keep moving forward and things will get done.<br /> <br /> 4.  Get help with the technical stuff. It will save you time.  Unless you like to do it and can do it quickly.<br /> <br /> 5.  Create templates as soon as possible.  I didn&#8217;t do this initially but now I have a simple show notes system that I use in Evernote and then it gets posted on my site as I work on each session.<br /> <br /> 6.  It&#8217;s perfectly fine to use a mix of free and paid resources.  I didn&#8217;t have a big budget to work with when I started my podcast, and even now, my expenses are minimal, until I decide to upgrade my equipment and get different music and intros. So to give you an idea of what was paid and what was free, of course, initially there are some things you will need to invest in but they can be one time investments. The things that I paid for are my custom <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy 200 mg tramadol online</a> album art, my microphone, my intro and outro music and segments, the hosting platform for the podcast audio, and my normal hosting for my website.  The free resources I use are my recording software called Audacity, Freesound.org for a few of the sound effects, and a quick editing online software called Auphonic.  Now are there better resources to use, of course, but my point is that it&#8217;s better to start somewhere and improve as you grow. And you don&#8217;t even need customized intro and outro music to start, you can simply share your content, record, post and promote.<br /> <br /> 7.  There&#8217;s always room for improvement, but don&#8217;t get down on yourself and don&#8217;t let it stop you.#051: Is Creativity More Important Than Stability?

And that is what this week&#8217;s step to success is about in a book called The Motivation Manifesto by high performance trainer Brendon Burchard, who I discovered years ago, however, this book has been sitting near my desk for a while, and I just finished it and loved it.  When you are reading a book, first of all, if it isn&#8217;t resonating with you, don&#8217;t feel like you have to finish it. There are too many good books out that that you will resonate with so read those. Secondly, to get more out of a book, take time to answer the questions or do the assignments that the book is asking you to do. Some of the questions that I just finished from this book are as follows, and even if you don&#8217;t read this book, take some time to answer these questions for yourself:<br /> <br /> Am I proud of who I am and the person I&#8217;m becoming?<br /> Am I happy with what I&#8217;m doing and contributing to the world?<br /> What kind of person do I want to show the world each day?<br /> What have I already done in life that I didn&#8217;t know I could?<br /> What reasons can I find to believe in myself and in my dreams even amid difficult days?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology and concepts from different genres to see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s focus is on traditional Korean dance.  As I&#8217;ve been on this new dance journey, I&#8217;ve been taking more of an interest in dance history upon recommendation from one of my trainers so that I can better <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol hcl</a> understand the origins of movement and how I can better myself in my own creative pursuits.  So, being that I am half Korean, I thought I would research Korean dance. Without going into too much detail, there are two types of dances, court dance and folk dance.  The court dance style  is very celebratory with bright costumes whereas the folk dance style can encompass a wider range of emotions from joy, to frustration, humor and sorrow.  Breath is very important in Korean dance regardless of style as well as continuity and fluidity.  This got me thinking about history as a whole and being reminded again the importance of knowing where things come from, so that we can continue learning and improving, whether in dance, business or life.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: If you&#8217;ve been listening recently, I&#8217;ve talked a bit about my love of hot yoga and now there are two things that I&#8217;ve added to my to do list, and those are two exercises that I am working on mastering, the chaturanga dandasana and the headstand. I&#8217;ve been looking at YouTube videos and Instagram video clips and excited to incorporate these.  A chaturanga dandasana is a low plank and It strengthens the arms and legs, tones the abdominals, builds healthy shoulders, and is preparation for arm balances, inversions, and backbends. Some of the benefits of headstands include improved brain function, better mood and increase in upper body strength. As with any exercise, alignment is critical to get the most of an exercise and to pre...#050: The Best of 2015 [Podcast]Reflection propels progression.  In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share the best of what I’ve experienced in 2015 to encourage you to make 2016 your best year yet.

Today&#8217;s step to success is a site called Creative Market.com and they offer stock photos, graphics, templates, fonts and if you sign up for their email list, you get some free resources every week.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology and concepts from different genres to see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s word is isolation.<br /> Isolation means pretty much the same things across all styles of dance.   You isolate one part of your body, which moves, while the rest of your body remains completely still.  This term got me thinking of focusing and isolating one task at a time when you&#8217;re working on a project so that you stay creative and productive, which means that multi-tasking is not so ideal.  Check out this <a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/3019659/leadership-now/what-multitasking-does-to-your-brain" target="_blank">article</a> from Fast Company on what multitasking does to your brain.<br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow:  I talk about making mistakes.   As I was going through past sessions, I discovered that I talked about tango twice on two different sessions of the Dancer&#8217;s Dialect segment.  This won&#8217;t be the last time I make a mistake and I need to be okay with that.  I used to get so worked up over mistakes that I had made.  I remember my first attempt to get my driver&#8217;s license and I failed. My auntie asked how I did and I burst into tears like it was the end of the world. I laugh <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol 50mg</a> about that now of course : )<br /> * Feature Presentation: I recently met with my mastermind group and we shared the following. It&#8217;s so important to surround yourself with like minded people that challenge you and are moving forward with their projects. It&#8217;s like having a success vacuum and you just can&#8217;t help but get sucked up into this whirlwind of goodness.  I hope that in sharing some of the things that we talked about, that you can reflect on what you&#8217;ve been through to prepare for even a more impactful year.<br /> <br /> <br /> 5 Things I&#8217;m Grateful For in 2015:<br /> -Continuing my dance training<br /> -I got to finally start taking Hot Yoga and I love it!<br /> -I&#8217;m the strongest I have ever been physically, and I am continuing that process.<br /> -I&#8217;ve achieved 5 of the 9 of goals that I set. I will be extending the ones I didn&#8217;t reach into 2016.<br /> -Meeting and getting to know people that I would have never met if I didn&#8217;t start dancing again<br /> <br /> <br /> Biggest Victory of 2015:  Performing for the first time in 22 years when I wasn&#8217;t planning on ever performing again.<br /> <br /> Biggest Lesson of 2015: There are feelings that I haven&#8217;t dealt with in 22 years that I have to work through and that I am continuing to work through.<br /> <br /> Funny: One of my favorite funny movies is &#8220;Keeping The Faith&#8221; with Ben Stiller, Edward Norton, and Jenna Elfman.<br /> I love the scenes of New York, the karaoke, and finding humor in the Catholic traditions that I grew up in.<br /> <br /> #049: Getting the OMF out of Comfort ZoneGetting the OMF out comfort zone means to Oust, Overtake and Obliterate My Fears.

In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I encourage you to do the same.<br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success:  We are getting close to the end of December and it&#8217;s never too late to start working on your goals for 2016. I used to dread and feel so much pressure when setting goals many years ago.  Check out my past session on <a href="http://annettbone.com/039" target="_blank">7 Ways to Prepare for 2016</a><br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology and concepts from different genres to see the correlations in your life and in your business.  Today&#8217;s step is two fold, one is called a prance in modern dance, and pas de cheval in ballet, which translates to step of the horse.  These terms came to mind as I pictured my son doing this skipping/prancing step every time he is happy.  What do you do when you&#8217;re happy?<br /> * Freestyle Flow: Why are a lot of dancers so stuck up?  You could say that about other groups of people whether they&#8217;re attorneys, musicians, etc. Sometimes the industry has a standard to be a certain way. The perception of being stuck up can also be a protective mechanism to hide insecurities. We all have them.<br /> <br /> Here are Some Ways to Be The Opposite of Stuck Up:<br /> <br /> * Offer applicable action steps or simple encouragement to help someone.<br /> * Listen intently and maintain proper eye contact.<br /> * Stop checking your phone all the time when you&#8217;re talking with someone.<br /> * Be that person that others look forward to seeing again because you have added value.<br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: 5 Things To Get the OMF out of comfort zone.<br /> <br /> When you think of the word comfort, do you get cozy warm feelings or does it make you kind of squirmy and uncomfortable?<br /> For me it&#8217;s both. There are some &#8220;comfortable&#8221; things in life that I appreciate like a warm beverage on a cold day, a lavender epsom salt bath after intense dance classes, and not driving in Southern California traffic, which is rare but I try to time when I am out to less congested times.<br /> OMF in comfort stands for<br /> OUST MY FEARS<br /> OVERTAKE MY FEARS<br /> OBLITERATE MY FEARS<br /> overtake: to catch up with and pass by<br /> oust: drive out or expel from a position or place<br /> obliterate: to destroy completely so that nothing is left<br /> I had to remind myself that my recent dance performance meant that I had to do the above and remember the following:<br /> 1. Give <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol online cheap</a> yourself some credit.<br /> Ever heard that sometimes you can be too close to a situation to appreciate it?<br /> Even if you think what you are doing isn&#8217;t a big deal, there are a lot of complacent people in this world that are too fearful to even try to do what you are doing. They are comfortable or &#8220;secure&#8221; in some way and don&#8217;t even want to attempt something outside of their comfort zone.<br /> <br /> 2. You don&#8217;t know who you will inspire. I want to make reference to Joel Gallarde from Triple8Funk Dance and Entertainment who was featured on <a href="http://annettbone.com/046" target="_blank">Session 046</a>  about being accountable and showing up because people are looking at your example.<br /> <br /> 3. Do what calms you and don&#8217;t focus on what others are doing around you. While other dancers were getting amped up for our recent show,  I relished the alone time I had and doing my breathing, warm up and strengthening.  Check out this great article from Monika Volkmar on <a href="http://danceproject....#048: The Dynamic Duo of Tango and Business [Podcast]It takes two to tango, and when it comes to tango and business, Homer and Cristina Ladas execute these beautifully in a successful partnership.

My Vitamix Blender that I make <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">cheap cipro</a> smoothies with every morning. 99% of the time my morning meal after my workout consists of water, greens, celery, chia seeds, raw cacao powder, some type of nut butter, coconut oil, and berries.<br /> 2. The clever comments from my son. His idea of a fancy meal would be Lunchables in the Oval Office. LOL!<br /> 3. Extra hot beverages on a cold day.<br /> 4. Having entrepreneurial friends regardless of where they are at in their businesses.<br /> 5.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward. Today&#8217;s step is a tool called Freedom that can be installed on all your devices to block distractions so that you can be productive. You can schedule the sessions where you want distractions blocked and there is a free trial available.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language.  I share terminology and concepts from different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.  I recently took a Dancehall class and it has been forever and a day since I was in that class and I had forgotten how much I enjoy it, and how difficult it is. There was one step we worked on called the nuh linga which you&#8217;ll see in the video below.<br /> <br /> &#8216;Nuh linga&#8217; means &#8216;do not linger&#8217; &#8211; don&#8217;t wait or keep moving. It may also express impatience, e.g. &#8216;me nah linga&#8217; means &#8216;I&#8217;m leaving. I cannot stay here any longer.&#8217; The basic rule while dancing is to keep your weight on your one foot and make circles with the other one. It is important to use your whole body, and your arms and torso need to rotate too. The impetus of the movement I learned comes from the hips, and the feet are just a natural progression from the hip and torso movement.<br /> <br /> The definition of nuh linga reminds me that there are some things in life that you cannot waste time on and you need to keep on moving. In business it can mean the difference between just having ideas and implementing those ideas forward. It&#8217;s about throwing out the idea of perfection, which is never attained, and have progression instead.<br /> <br /> <br /> &nbsp;<br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow:<br /> There&#8217;s dirt on my shirt. And pretty much all over my clothes now that I do some of my workouts outdoors. I love being outside exercising, even when it&#8217;s cold. Check out this <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/health/2015/03/25/5-unexpected-benefits-exercising-outdoors.html" target="_blank">article</a> on the benefits of exercising outdoors.  Whether it&#8217;s a gym atmosphere you like or being outdoors, the best thing is exercise where you know you&#8217;ll be the most consistent.<br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation:<br /> <br /> I have to admit, I am not one of those people who loves holidays like Christmas, Hanukkhah, Kwanzaa, etc. I have to look for the positive in it because my son loves it, but if it wasn&#8217;t for him, it would just be another month. Part of the reason is that during this Fall time is when the days would drag when I was working a regular nine to five, not dancing, became homeless, and also lost a number of people that were close to me.  I know, I&#8217;m sounding kind of negative and like Scrooge, right? I don&#8217;t necessarily fit into the happy homemaker baking cookies either, lol. I apologize in advance to those of you that love Christmas and this time of year. Although I do love the movie Elf with <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol online pharmacy</a> Will Ferrell. : )<br /> Instead of focusing on the fact that I want December to be done soon...#046: Mentorship, Communication and Creativity [Podcast]When it comes to dance, it’s more than just movement.  In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, Joel Gallarde of Triple8Funk Dance & Entertainment Company and I have a great talk about the importance of mentorship, developing communication skills and constantly expanding your creativity.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward. Today&#8217;s step is finding your strengths and weaknesses, and when working with others, getting help in the areas that you are not strong.<br /> When working with others, sometimes it&#8217;s difficult to let go of the things that you are not so great at, but it&#8217;s one of the best things that you can do.  A lot of times you also think, I can do it cheaper and faster myself. I still struggle with this at times.<br /> Check out this article from <a href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/224433" target="_blank">Entrepreneur.com</a> about how to find your strengths. There are no shortage of resources, assessments, etc. that will help identify your strengths.<br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: I thought it would be appropriate to talk about the word grounded or grounding in this week&#8217;s dancer&#8217;s dialect since my featured guest will be talking about this word as it relates to a successful event that he recently put on. It got me thinking about how I used to be fearful of floorwork and now I embrace any time I can do movement on the floor. Part of this has happened due to choreography in different contemporary classes where I really had no choice but to do the choreography as best as I could at the time. Logically, I know that relaxing into the floor and into the movement will product a better quality In my dancing.  For me, sometimes that is easier said than done because I overthink and end up putting too much <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol online uk</a> effort where it&#8217;s not needed. I&#8217;m learning! How do you connect to the floor and get more grounded? I found an <a href="https://suite.io/terry-finch/325d2sd" target="_blank">article</a> that explains it simply as follows:<br /> 1. Relax and breathe,  and allow connection to the floor.<br /> 2. Use your core&#8211;One of the best things that I have been doing in my dance conditioning is working on this outside of my dance classes. It&#8217;s challenging and exciting to be gaining control and strength in this area.<br /> 3. Go barefoot. The island girl in me loves this of course.<br /> <br /> &#8220;Getting grounded should not be confused with dancing heavily or ungracefully. By dancing through the core, relaxing into the movements, and connecting with the floor, dancers can create movements that are lengthened, graceful, and fluid. Practicing these techniques will bring a wider range of movement quality for a dancer.&#8221;<br /> <br /> -How to stay grounded in your life and business?  Pretty much the same thing.<br /> -Relax<br /> -Breathe<br /> -And just like getting connected to the floor in dance, Connect to people and things that fuel you in the best way.<br /> -And if you want to go barefoot, that would be nice too : )<br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: I&#8217;m addicted to doing handstands! I&#8217;ve been practicing for a while and it&#8217;s exciting to be in the process of building my upper body strength.  Check out this <a href="http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-11284/5-reasons-you-should-do-handstands-every-day.html" target="_blank">article</a> on the benefits of doing handstands everyday.<br /> * Feature Presentation: It was exciting for me to have a conversation with Joel Gallarde,#045: 5 Ways to Lose Clients [Podcast]Losing a relationship is a lot easier than gaining one.

One of the managers at the gym I was checking out discounted that dance wasn&#8217;t really training. Hmmmm. I could&#8217;ve told him a thing or two but I didn&#8217;t want to waste my breath.  Solution: Acknowledge their achievements.<br /> 3. Mumble your sentences. Don&#8217;t communicate clearly. Solution: Communicate clearly.<br /> 4. You don&#8217;t express gratitude toward them. Solution: Verbally thank them or send them a card or an email.<br /> 5.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.<br /> I never get tired of images of nature and inspirational quotes. They are one of the things I really look forward to when viewing my Instagram account. You can have the same thing on your desktop with an app called Limitless. This is a productivity app that is installed on your Chrome browser that has gorgeous wallpapers and can be customized to remind you of your goals or whatever you want it to read. So when you open a new tab, instead of a plain background with the search box. There is a button that is on your browser that tells you whether the site you are on is productive or not. Why not see beautiful imagery that is customized to you? Check out this screenshot of one of my tabs:<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Be-Limitless-Tab.png"></a><br /> <br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology across different genres so you can see the correlations in your life and in your business.<br /> Lately in the different classes I am taking, there has been an emphasis on being clear with your movements and knowing the direction that you&#8217;re going. I&#8217;ve talked about spotting in previous sessions, which is critical in doing different turns such as pirouettes,<a href="http://annettbone.com/034" target="_blank"> pique turns</a> and <a href="http://annettbone.com/018" target="_blank">chaines</a> turns. First of all, so you don&#8217;t get dizzy and secondly, so you know <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">order tramadol no prescription</a> where you are going directionally. Clarity is freedom whether it&#8217;s in dance, life or business.  I think the following questions from an article in the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/lara-young/5-steps-for-getting-clarity-about-what-you-want-in-life_b_7113010.html" target="_blank">Huffington Post</a> are important to address on clarity:<br /> 1. What makes you happy? What do you love doing?<br /> <br /> 2. What have been your most enjoyable achievements in life so far?<br /> 3. If you could do, be or have anything you wanted, what would you choose?<br /> 4. What would you do if you knew you could not fail?<br /> 5. You are given a billion dollars. What do you do?<br /> 6. Who inspires you? What qualities do they have that you most admire?<br /> <br /> Lately, in the different classes I am taking, there has been an emphasis on being clear with your movements and knowing the direction that you&#8217;re going.

Clarity is freedom whether it&#8217;s in dance, life or business.<br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: I recently spent some time with my sister and my cousin and we always have great laughs together over the silliest things.  They always seem to find these places that have inexpensive clothes. I hardly go clothes shopping but I am going to need to since my clothes are no longer fitting, in a good way, which has been very gratifying. I am not one of those women that love shopping and can just browse which is why it&#8217;s good for me to have company if I do go.#042: Dance is Delicious [Podcast]Kirby Rae, dancer and entrepreneur, describes how dance can be delicious and the importance of feeling good in your own skin in this session of The DancePreneuring Studio.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.  I&#8217;ve spoken in the past about podcasts and other free resources that you can take advantage of to learn and build a business, one of them being the library.  This week&#8217;s step to success is a resource called Creative Live. These live online workshops are free for anyone to access and cover all types of subjects such as photography, business, music, design and so much more. And if you watch the classes live, you can interact with the instructors in real time. There is no shortage of resources to get creative.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: Today&#8217;s word in the dancer&#8217;s dialect comes from the House style of dance and it is loose legs, which is a basic step. It&#8217;s not that basic to me because of the way the hips have to move as well as the upper body. I love house music and I have taken house dance classes,  just not lately so as I was watching this video, I thought, I really need to get back into taking some house classes. As with any style of dance, it&#8217;s all the subtleties that make the dance what it is. The feel of house is so important. It&#8217;s not robotic or stiff, it&#8217;s groovy and free flowing and just feel good.  I would say there is a technique to it, not like ballet where it is very defined and rigid, but more of the feeling of it than anything else.<br /> In business, next time you read a piece of marketing material, whether it&#8217;s a print ad or a commercial, see if you can notice the subtleties and how they make you feel.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: I remember when I was a teenager in Hawaii and Guam and how much I loved going to the mall. I usually got to go with my family and it was rare that I was allowed to just go and hang out at the mall. The three that we would frequent were Pearl Ridge, Ala Moana, and not really a mall but because we were a military family, the shopping centers on the military bases.  I was oblivious to parking, crowds, waiting in line etc. When we moved to Guam, at that time, there were only shopping centers and then when then they built the Micronesia Mall and I finally got to go, as long as my cousin came with me.  I don&#8217;t know if it was the novelty of the mall as much as it was trying to be independent.<br /> <br /> Fast forward to today, as a recovering mallrat, I avoid the mall as much as possible. The only time I go now is if I have friends with me, and that is very rare. I am not much for crowds <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">buy ciprofloxacin india</a> most of the time and I would rather do other things, like go to a dance class, or have another memorable experience like find a new ecclectic coffeeshop where I can create. I love finding places that foster creativity, and that can be anywhere&#8230;except the mall, just kidding : )<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: My hope is that you learn something from 7 of the MANY mistakes that I&#8217;ve made, and will continue to make.<br /> <br /> 1. I didn&#8217;t count the cost of a job and how a business would cost me in terms of my health and emotional well-being.<br /> Solution: Take some time to think and digest what will be required to take on a new project and trust your instincts.<br /> <br /> 2. I allowed others to influence my decisions for the sake of keeping up appearances.  I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ve heard the saying about &#8220;Keeping up with the ...#040: How a Dysfunctional Relationship with Dance Led to Freedom and Success [Podcast]Monika Volkmar  took her frustration of fitting in, to the freedom of standing out, by taking dance to a level beyond performing in this session of The DancePreneuring Studio.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.  I use screen capture via my MacBook Pro with the Command + Shift + 4 keys and then drag out the area that I need to capture, as well as a tool called Snagit by Techsmith. It&#8217;s nice to be able to demonstrate visually for those who need to see things as opposed to reading text.<br /> * Dancer&#8217;s Dialect: The dancer&#8217;s dialect is the dancer&#8217;s language. I share dance terminology across different genres that relate to your life and to your business. Today&#8217;s word is very applicable to dance, even if it&#8217;s not a &#8220;dance word&#8221; per se, and that is cross training. I thought this word would be appropriate to share since my featured guest talks about the importance of cross training in order to become a better dancer. I am certainly finding that to be the case as I have added different conditioning exercises to my dance <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">buying cipro</a> training and I am noticing a huge difference. How do you cross train in your business? There are three  of many things you can do:<br /> <br /> * 1. Study different industries to see what you can implement in yours.<br /> * 2. Schedule rest times, which are very important in physical cross training, and just as important in your business.<br /> * 3. Figure out something in your business you can change, test and see what happens. For example, changing a button color on your website where people subscribe.<br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: It&#8217;s best not to pack on the warpaint (makeup) when you are going to dance class or the gym.  Check out this article from The Huffington Post that says it all &#8211; <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/12/workout-beauty-tips-makeup-exercise_n_4254964.html" target="_blank">Why You Definitely Shouldn&#8217;t Wear Makeup to the Gym</a><br /> * Feature Presentation: I love that my guest, Monika Volkmar, emphasizes the aspect of dance being human first, and then dance second. We talk about injury prevention and the importance of self-love as she takes us through her journey of her love/hate relationship with dance to a successful business teaching others to overcome and prevent dance injuries.<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="http://danceproject.ca" target="_blank">The Dance Training Project</a><br /> <a href="http://dancestronger.com" target="_blank">Dance Stronger Program</a><br /> <a href="https://www.techsmith.com/snagit.html" target="_blank">Snagit by Techsmith</a><br /> <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/12/workout-beauty-tips-makeup-exercise_n_4254964.html" target="_blank">Huffington Post Article</a><br /> Connect with Monika:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/The-Dance-Training-Project-149077605221018/" target="_blank">Facebook</a><br /> <a href="https://twitter.com/monikavolkmar" target="_blank">Twitter</a><br /> <a href="http://ca.linkedin.com/pub/monika-volkmar/51/242/4a3" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a><br /> <a href="http://instagram.com/monvolkmar" target="_blank">Instagram</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.  Since I have started dancing, I am listening to more music, and expanding my listening to different types of music. I listen very differently now thanks to two of my very talented dancer friends, JP Goldstein and David Bagley based on what I have learned from them in their classes. I used to only pay attention to the lyrics and maybe some of the obvious beats or melodies, but now I am paying attention to the subtle things. There is a study that was done by Applied Ergonomics referenced on <a href="http://www.lifehack.org/276303/5-hobbies-which-can-surprisingly-boost-your-productivity" target="_blank">an article</a> in lifehack.org that proves that background music helps productivity, performance and focus.<br /> * Dancers Dialect: The word for today is Ami&#8211;in Hula and Tahitian it&#8217;s the rotation of the hips&#8211;notice that the upper body is still. It reminds me of having a calm composure even if you have feelings otherwise on the inside.  I&#8217;ve often felt like this when there is a misunderstanding in communication whether personally or in business.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I absolutely love KT tape and I use it on my knee to help pain relief and for support.<br /> * Feature Presentation: 7 Ways to Prepare for 2016<br /> <br /> 1. Do an audit of the goals you set for 2015 and reassess. What have you achieved so far?  Do they need to be revised? For example, one of the goals I set for myself is to read 36 books. As of the date of this <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol no prescription legal</a> recording, I am at 13.<br /> <br /> 2. Take 3-5 minutes to imagine and meditate on what it would feel like to get to December 31, 2015 and have all your goals that you set met.<br /> <br /> 3. Write down 5 positive things that have happened to you this year that you didn&#8217;t plan for.<br /> <br /> 4. Set a date and time in your calendar in the next month (November) to spend some time to set your goals for 2016.  I would recommend going off site from where you normally work.<br /> <br /> 5. Put important dates that you already know for 2016, including quarterly reviews.<br /> <br /> 6. Find an accountability partner and/or join a mastermind group.<br /> What gets measured, gets improved, and what gets reported grows exponentially.<br /> <br /> 7. Enjoy the journey, and celebrate your successes, big and small.<br /> <br /> My friend <a href="http://dennismcintee.com" target="_blank">Dennis McIntee</a>&#8216;s three simple step framework on mindset:<br /> <br /> It&#8217;s said over and over again, but it truly is about the right mindset.<br /> <br /> * <br /> <br /> Remember these three things:<br /> 1. All I need is within me now. If you win the internal game, the external takes care of itself.<br /> <br /> 2. What you do flows from who you are. There is no business growth without personal growth.<br /> 3. I never fail, I only produce results. Keep taking action, monitor the feedback and change. You change your way to success.<br /> It doesn&#8217;t matter what type of business you&#8217;re involved in, your mindset is more important than methods.<br /> What are you looking forward to achieving in 2016?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="http://focusatwill.com" target="_blank">Focus At Will</a><br /> <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/85broads/2014/04/08/why-you-should-be-writing-down-your-goals/" target="_blank" shape="rect">Forbes Articl...#038: 5 Common Questions I Get Asked A Lot [Podcast]In this session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I share the 5 common questions I get asked most often.

Lines were adapted so that they looked impressive from the audience&#8217;s point of view.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanchine_method#cite_note-1">[1]</a>Specific characteristics include:<br /> <br /> * Extreme speed and very deep <a title="Glossary of ballet" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_ballet#Pli.C3.A9">plié</a><br /> * Emphasis on line, with use of unconventional, asymmetrical, abstract arm and hand placement<br /> * Pirouettes en-dehors taken from a lunge in 4th, rather than the conventional plié in 4th<br /> * Distinctive arabesque line with the hip open to the audience and the side arm pressed back<br /> * Athletic dance quality<br /> * Arabesque positions are usually open and facing the audience<br /> <br /> <br /> * <a href="http://www.nycballet.com/Explore/Our-History/George-Balanchine.aspx" target="_blank">Click here </a>for a quick informative video on the NYCB site on George Balanchine<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: A spontaneous craft project with my son reminded me of the importance of varying my experiences so that I don&#8217;t revert back to similar patterns in the creation process.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.  Today’s step is taking ideas to implementation and achieving goals by using a 3-tiered structure so you will always accomplish a result:<br /> * <br /> Make sure you have a plan to execute idea to implementation. And get started, no matter how small.<br /> 1. Write all your ideas down, no matter how trivial or massive they seem to be.<br /> 2. Make a schedule to review them regularly. Some ideas will not be exciting anymore and it&#8217;s okay to cross them off your list.<br /> 3. Be flexible if necessary on the execution. Allow for detours.<br /> <br /> * Minimum: What can you do that is a no-brainer, that you know you&#8217;ll do no matter what? I used the example of doing one push-up a day for a week.<br /> * Target: This is the middle range goal that you can shoot for, that can require a bit of a stretch. In my push-up example, maybe this could be 3-5 pushups a day.<br /> * Outrageous: This is beyond what you can see, but it&#8217;s still a possibility. What do you think about 20 push-ups a day?<br /> <br /> <br /> * The Dancers’ Dialect: Dance terminology as it relates to life and business.  This week is not a term but a process <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">buy cheap tramadol online</a> that I know you&#8217;ll find helpful. Whether it&#8217;s marking or going full out on choreography, focus on one thing you want to work on each time.  Maybe the first time it&#8217;s musicality, maybe the second time it&#8217;s the counts, and then maybe the third, will be emotional interpretation. It&#8217;ll be different for everyone.<br /> * Freestyle Flow: I talk about the importance of facing conflict and still treating others with kindness even if they don&#8217;t treat you respectfully.<br /> * Feature Presentation: It doesn&#8217;t take a lot to communicate clearly, it just takes intention.  Here are 5 steps that will help you communicate clearly in your life and in your business:<br /> <br /> * <br /> 1. No Weirdness Policy (What I communicate up front with clients as much as possible so that we have freedom of open communication.)<br /> 2. Show respect and kindness regardless of the subject matter. Address the situation, not the perceived shortcomings of a person.<br /> 3. Realize that everyone is your superior in some way. Not that they are better than you, but they might know something in some other area that you don&#8217;t know about.<br /> 4. Don&#8217;t be afraid to apologize.<br /> 5. Ask questions as to how the other person prefers communication. (Phone calls, face-to-face meetings, virtual meetings, texts, emails and/or project management systems)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * What communication steps can you share that have helped your life and your business?<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="http://www.timsanders.com/books/love-killer-app.html" target="_blank">Love is The Killer App Book</a><br /> <a href="http://basecamp.com" target="_blank">Basecamp</a><br /> <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/wired-success/201104/why-goal-setting-doesnt-work" target="_blank">Article on Psychology Today about Goal Setting Not Working</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

I talk about how three different people in the span of a week gave me feedback on things and details that I didn&#8217;t readily share, but somehow they intuitively figured out. Check out this interesting study on encouragement from <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/5257059/Encouragement-improves-your-game-better-than-criticism-claim-scientists.html" target="_blank">The Telegraph</a> and another in-depth scientific study from the <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12003280" target="_blank">U.S. National Library of Medicine</a> on the effects of frequency of encouragement on performance during exercise testing.<br /> * Feature Presentation: One event can change everything.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward.  Today&#8217;s step is a book by Seth Godin called, Free Prize Inside, How To Make A Purple Cow.<br /> * The Dancers&#8217; Dialect: Dance terminology as it relates to life and business.  This week&#8217;s term is floor pattern. Check out the floor pattern I was instructed to create at a recent dance improv class. I couldn&#8217;t take my pen off the paper and then had to follow the directions of this pattern.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Improv-Floor-Pattern.jpg"></a><br /> <br /> * Freestyle Flow: It&#8217;s interesting how we try to define who are by names. Wyldstyle was a character on The Lego Movie and at toward the end of the movie she revealed <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">cheap tramadol usa</a> that her real name was Lucy. I think it&#8217;s important to be proud of who you are and the name that you are given.<br /> * Feature Presentation: I recently participated in Dance Day at Boogiezone Utopia and it&#8217;s always a great experience. Dance Day has multiple classes going all at one time in different genres and levels, ending with one main masterclass.  It brought the following 7 lessons to mind:<br /> <br /> <br /> * Set it up.<br /> * Encourage those around you.<br /> * Prepare and take breaks when necessary.<br /> * Speak as clearly as possible. Stop muttering.  Respond appropriately. Be clear in all your communications&#8211;texting, emails, etc.  Communication isn&#8217;t made to be a guessing game.<br /> * Be patient with others and yourself.<br /> * Be aware of people&#8217;s energy. Don&#8217;t be an energy vampire and don&#8217;t hang around them.  Be an energy giver.<br /> * Take deep breaths.<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Free-Prize-Inside-Make-Purple/dp/1591841674" target="_blank">Seth Godin&#8217;s Book</a><br /> <a href="http://boogiezoneutopia.com" target="_blank">Boogiezone Utopia</a><br /> <a href="http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART02039/the-art-and-science-of-breathing.html" target="_blank">Dr. Weil&#8217;s Breathing Article</a><br /> <a href="http://www.thelegomovie.com/" target="_blank">The Lego Movie</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

My own personal example is that I needed to claim that I was a podcaster long before my podcast was even on iTunes as I was working on putting my sessions together.<br /> * Feature Presentation: My dance trainer Wendy Dow and I have a conversation about the importance of enjoying the journey as you are pursuing your goals and the lessons she&#8217;s learned from being a student to now teaching and choreographing.<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="http://www.studio68london.net/" target="_blank">Studio 68</a><br /> <a href="http://www.cultureshockdancecenter.com/" target="_blank">Culture Shock San Diego</a><br /> <a href="http://www.cultureshockdancecenter.com/content/angie-bunch" target="_blank">Angie Bunch</a><br /> <a href="http://cultureshockdance.org/sandiego/2012/03/alumni-spotlight-darla-youngman-gonzales-and-tina-ingrassia/" target="_blank">Tina Ingrassia</a><br /> <a href="http://boogiezoneutopia.com" target="_blank">Boogiezone Utopia</a><br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BZGamechangerz" target="_blank">GameChangerz</a><br /> <a href="http://www.nba.com/clippers/jr-jam" target="_blank">LA Clippers</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

What works on Facebook does not mean the message will translate the same way on LinkedIn, Instagram or Twitter.<br /> * He left a repertory of respected works.  Are you thinking about the legacy factor of your business? As an entrepreneur you will stop and start projects but what is it that you want to have lasting legacy power?<br /> * He made sure that his choreography had a fluid succession from one movement to the next. Make sure your sales funnel is working seamlessly.  And it&#8217;s better to have something simple in place, rather than no follow up sequence.<br /> * He was an ambassador for American Modern Dance not necessarily for technique purposes, but the human quality of dance. Be a good will ambassador representing your brand and your business, in everything that you do.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

An amazing adventure is no different. In the latest session of The DancePreneuring Studio, I catch up with my college friend Liv Berger Beaty as we discuss dance, business and how she planned her amazing adventure.<br /> <a href="http://annettbone.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Liv-Berger-Beaty.png"></a><br /> Session Summary<br /> <br /> * Step to Success: Just as steps are necessary in a dance, there are steps to success in your life and business. In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward. Today&#8217;s step is a collaboration tool called <a href="https://nozbe.com/" target="_blank">Nozbe</a>.  I love the clean interface and the ease of use.<br /> * The Dancers&#8217; Dialect: Dance terminology as it relates to life and business.  This week&#8217;s word is mirroring.  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choreography_%28dance%29" target="_blank">Mirroring</a> is an underlying <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">tramadol no prescription needed</a> technique commonly used in choreography for two or more dancers where they are facing each other and doing the same thing.  Mirroring in business means you do the same ethical actions of a successful person.  You don&#8217;t become their clone, you make what was successful for them, successful for you.  Check out this video of how mirroring can be done. One of my favorite 80&#8217;s dance movies lol : )<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: It was a pleasure catching up with my college classmate, Liv Berger Beaty, who has had great success with multiple businesses in Chicago and Colorado.  I loved reading and hearing about her recent family trip that reaffirmed a number of business principles that we can apply to our great adventure of life.<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="https://nozbe.com/" target="_blank">Nozbe</a><br /> <a href="http://www.thepilatesstylist.com" target="_blank">The Pilates Stylist</a><br /> <a href="http://www.tinydragonphotography.com/" target="_blank">Tiny Dragon Photography</a><br /> <a href="http://offthegridwithkid.com/" target="_blank">Off The Grid with Kid</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.

In this segment, we discuss a step in the form of an app, a book, or a concept that will help you move forward. Today&#8217;s step is a book called Thou Shall Prosper by Rabbi Daniel Lapin. He shares the following 10 principles with applicable steps:<br /> <br /> Believe in the dignity and morality of business<br /> Extend the network of your connectedness<br /> Get to know yourself<br /> Don’t pursue perfection<br /> Lead consistently and constantly<br /> Change the changeable while clinging to the unchangeable<br /> Learn to foretell the future<br /> Know your money<br /> Give money away<br /> Never retire<br /> Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, I know that you will get value from this book.<br /> <br /> * The Dancers&#8217; Dialect: Dance terminology as it relates to life and business.  This week&#8217;s word is progressions. Check out the following video of choreographer <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://forhealthylives.com/product/tramadol/">cheap tramadol 50 mg</a> Mandy Moore demonstrating progressions.<br /> <br /> <br /> And I couldn&#8217;t pass up the opportunity to share one of my favorite pieces that Mandy choreographed for So You Think You Can Dance:<br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: We discuss the 7 keys to abundance and how easy it is to start changing your mindset.  These 7 keys are:<br /> <br /> 1. Don&#8217;t judge where wisdom comes from, but inspect the fruit on the tree.<br /> 2. Invest in yourself.<br /> 3. Create a life and a business that is sustainable.<br /> 4. Figure out how you are naturally wired to excel.<br /> 5. Know the value you bring and connect with like-minded people.<br /> 6. Think well of others.<br /> 7.

Today&#8217;s step is a book by Chet Holmes called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1591842158/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1591842158&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=annbon-20&amp;linkId=M6RYCOOYHWM3GEAL">The Ultimate Sales Machine</a>.<br /> * The Dancers&#8217; Dialect: Dance terminology as it relates to life and business. The word for today in the Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is six step.  Six step is a fundamental step in both jazz and breakdancing, <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">cipro</a> however,  the only similarity they have is that both consist of six steps. The jazz six step is demonstrated in the following video of Beverly Bautista, one of my favorite jazz teachers, at about 41 seconds:And the six step in breakdancing is different.

The word for today in the Dancer&#8217;s Dialect is petit allegro, a term meaning small jumps or turns that help with developing coordination, musicality and quick <a style="text-decoration:none; color: #222222;" href="http://www.ciprobuyonline.org">cipro 1000 mg</a> footwork. There are numerous variations of this section done in ballet class. Check out this video of <a href="http://www.balletmagnificat.com/" target="_blank">Ballet Magnificat!</a> doing a petit allegro combination. It looks effortless so don&#8217;t be fooled by the &#8220;smallness&#8221; of these steps. It takes a lot of stamina and strength to make this combination look the way it does. I love how they break down the steps toward the end in slow motion.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * Feature Presentation: My friend Emeroy Bernardo and I discuss the importance of getting feedback for improvement, how to communicate effectively through different styles, and helping others with small victories so that they lead to big wins.<br /> <br /> Links From This Session<br /> <a href="https://slack.com/" target="_blank">Slack</a><br /> <a href="http://emeroy.com" target="_blank">Emeroy.com</a><br /> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/e3k" target="_blank">Emeroy TV</a><br /> <a href="https://www.udemy.com/u/emeroybernardo/" target="_blank">Learn from Emeroy&#8217;s Courses on Udemy</a><br /> <a href="http://www.thatsteezy.com/why-your-dancers-arent-getting-your-choreography/" target="_blank">Emeroy&#8217;s Article on Learning Styles</a><br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IQDPDAA/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B00IQDPDAA&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=annbon-20&amp;linkId=2OQOS6FD5IOFGMLX">The Healthy, Active Life: How to Burn Fat, Get Lean, and Increase Energy (Fat Loss Book Series)</a><br /> Connect with Emeroy on:<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EmeroyB?fref=ts" target="_blank">Facebook</a><br /> <a href="https://twitter.com/emeroyb" target="_blank">Twitter</a><br /> <a href="https://instagram.com/emeroyb/" target="_blank">Instagram</a><br /> Would you review The DancePreneuring Studio?<br /> I would be extremely appreciative if you would subscribe and leave your feedback on iTunes or Stitcher Radio.
