Today, we’re diving with Meredith Levine into one of the most often overlooked aspects of partner dancing: stillness.
We’re exploring how less can truly be more on the dance floor, and how presence, breath, and energy exchange can transform a simple step into a meaningful body conversation. You’ll also hear about the Six Dance Love Languages - that helps explain why certain dance partners just click, while others don’t.

Hey friend, this episode is a deeply personal one. We’re talking about grief, growth, and how to keep your joy alive on the dance floor - even when life throws challenges your way.
In this episode, we talk about:
Trang shares her reflection on her recent experience grief and depression, exploring the impact of losing someone in the dance community, a dance partner moving away, and what it taught her as a dancer and a person.
How teachers and more developed dancers need growth too, and why keeping elders inspired is essential to prevent burnout.
The balance between sacrificing your own joy to help others versus protecting your own body and energy.
Inspiration matters: beginners need to see what’s possible to spark their own growth.

In this episode, we’re diving into the heart of our dance Practicas (or, as one attendee called it, a “dance practice jam session”) and what we’ve been learning about ourselves, our partners, and our community through them.
So often, dancers tie their self-worth to how they’re perceived on the floor — the number of times they’re asked to dance, compliments they receive, or how “good” their last dance felt. It’s what we call conditional validation. And it can make trying something like a practica feel intimidating.
One of our attendees verbalized it perfectly: the struggle isn’t lack of knowledge or skill — it’s the self-consciousness and fear of being evaluated. He shared thoughts that many of us have silently carried for years: the anxiety around leading or following, the fear that if a partner isn’t enjoying the dance, somehow we’re not enough.
Our goal in Practicas is the opposite: we’re here to support growth, not scrutinize. To give you tools to have better dances, better connection, and more confidence - without tying it to your self-worth.
💡 Topics we cover in this episode:
Why self-criticism holds us back from truly enjoying the moment
The importance of Connection & Consent, Musicality, Movement Vocabulary, Adaptability, Creativity & Concept Integration, and Technical Mastery in your dance growth
How technique and control make your movements more grounded, efficient, expressive, and help prevent physical energy leaks.
Learning to adjust to different dancers, creating better experiences for your partners, and feeling more at ease with yourself
💡 Practicas (aka dance practice jams) at Fusion University are designed to:
Help you spot blind spots (like how you step or where you carry your weight)
Give hands-on feedback so you can feel what better connection is like
Workshop new ideas and moves with guidance
Build a culture where giving and receiving feedback is safe, constructive, and even fun
In the wild world of social dancing, you often don’t get that level of intentional feedback. Practicas are the bridge between “learning in class” and “dancing in the wild.”
📅 Upcoming September Events:
- Wed. Sept. 17, 2025 (Open Level Dance Practice Session - in Artesia, CA)

Hey friend,
Today's episode is *not* lighthearted. It’s not a “fun” topic. But it’s one we cannot afford to keep sweeping under the rug.
Today, we’re having a real talk about unsafe people in the dance scene — how abuse of power shows up, why character matters, and what we as a community can do about it.
Because here’s the truth: We’re not here to please everyone. We’re here to protect our people.
We’ve heard the stories. We’ve seen the reports. And too often, people turn away, minimize, or say “Oh, it doesn’t seem that bad.” Meanwhile, dancers are getting hurt.
In this episode, we dig into:
Why do communities wait until things get really bad before taking action
The abuse of power that happens when management, DJs, or top people aren’t held accountable
What it feels like when survivors are minimized, dismissed, or not believed
The responsibility of organizers — what is our role, where does the line get drawn, and what are your protocols when an unsafe person shows up at your event?
Why speaking up matters, even if it feels scary or unpopular
Our Call to Action for You:
Survivors: We would love to learn from you. What would have helped you then and what would help you now? Your story matters.
Dancers: If something feels off, don’t wait. Don’t keep it to yourself. Go to your organizer, someone you trust, or even the authorities. Your report becomes part of a paper trail that can protect others.
Organizers: What’s your protocol when unsafe people show up? .
This work we do is not for the faint of heart. It’s not for people-pleasers. But if we can be the first to start talking about it openly, maybe others will feel safer to share, too.
Because silence helps no one. Awareness is how we stop falling prey.
After you listen, we encourage you talk about this with someone you trust in your dance community.
Community grows stronger when we connect, when we share, and when we stand up together.

Today’s episode is a sneak peak into something we’ve been building behind the scenes that’s going to seriously elevate your dancing — Fusion University’s Dance Rubric — and why our Practicas (dance practice jam) are becoming a favorite space for learning, experimenting, and actually feeling the growth in your dance.
Here’s the thing:
You can’t improve what you can’t measure. If we’re going to define what “good” is in partner dancing, we need a way to measure it — without slipping into perfectionism or crushing creativity.
We talk about our six Guiding Principles and what they mean in this episode.
No matter what your dance background is — WCS, blues, tango, ballroom, salsa — this rubric helps you see both your strengths and where you can grow. It’s not about “you’re good” or “you’re bad.” It’s about giving you the tools to create better experiences for your partners and for yourself.
______
We also get into:
How dancing is co-creation, not just self-expression — and how to adjust to your partner without losing yourself.
Why “mixed reviews” of a dance often come down to one or two areas in the rubric — and how identifying them can change everything.
How Practicas are different from regular socials (think: guided, intentional, and full of “aha!” moments you can’t get from YouTube).
Real-time feedback that’s like adding just the right spice to a dish — you don’t have to take every suggestion, but the ideas open new layers and textures in your dance.
💡 Practicas (aka dance practice jams) at FU are designed to:
Help you spot blind spots
Give hands-on feedback so you can feel what better connection is like
Workshop new ideas and moves with guidance
Build a culture where giving and receiving feedback is safe, constructive, and even fun
In the wild world of social dancing, you often don’t get that level of intentional feedback. Practicas are the bridge between “learning in class” and “dancing in the wild.”
📅 Upcoming August Events:
-Aug. 15 - Latin Hustle x Fusion Movement Lab (Watts, CA)
-Aug. 17 - Beach Day (Rosie’s Dog Beach, in Long Beach, CA)

In this honest episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it’s really like to launch something like Fusion University.
We’re talking about the behind-the-scenes challenges, the moments that made us question everything, the heartfelt feedback that lifted us, and the unexpected the not so pretty parts that comes with being “an entity” versus just yourself. (Yup — people treat you differently. We’re going there.)
"We are bearing the burden of making this happen. So we are allowed to define how we want it to go. If we want a higher quality of dances in LA... then we’ve just got to make it happen." - Kalann
And that’s what FU is here to do: filling the gap.
We also chat about:
The unspoken and hidden costs (emotionally, mentally, financially) of running dance socials and classes/practicas that no one warns you about
How being a guest is different when you’ve walked in the shoes of an organizer
What goes into making tough decisions that not everyone sees
Why feedback is gold—but also needs to be framed with curiosity
✨ Want to Help Out?
We LOVE when you ask how to support — here’s how:
We need help finding studio spaces, rec centers in LA (with price, parking,—all the goodies). And if you make us a spreadsheet of venues… we’ll take you out to dinner. Seriously.
Got social media skills? We have a backlog of videos to post!
Want to host a game night, leads or follows night in, or be part of community planning? Let’s talk.
Know where and how to research for grants? Message us, please!
Does connecting people to be able to go to dance through community outreach and/or creating and managing an LA / OC carpool group sound fulfilling? We’d love to have you!

The Mental Challenge of Dance: Managing expectations, staying open to surprises, and figuring out your own style are all part of the journey. Hear how one dancer learned to stop comparing themselves to others and started owning their unique creative expression.
Giving and Receiving Feedback: How do you handle an off day? What about when you or your partner isn’t on the same page?
Safety and Boundaries on the Dance Floor: Listener question alert! How do you navigate an unsafe situation with a partner or provide feedback without fear of retaliation? We tackle this sensitive topic and discuss how to foster a safe and supportive community where everyone feels empowered to grow.

Today’s episode dives deep into the fusion dance world, touching on the inner and outer conflicts we face as dancers. Whether it’s self-comparison, miscommunication, or navigating feedback, we’re unpacking it all with real-life experiences, tangible tips, and some mindset shifts.
We’ll hear from Kalann, who shares how he overcame self-deprecation and self-worth issues and the mental blocks that used to hold him back on the dance floor.
His TWO MAJOR tips will help you rethink how you approach your growth as a dancer and change the way you handle feedback and your overall dance experience.
We’ll also explore how little things—like what we say on the dance floor—can be taken in different ways, and how Trang navigated feedback about her words unintentionally hurting others. We’re breaking down how to take feedback constructively, open the door to meaningful conversations, and use it as a tool for growth.
*PLUS, we make a very exciting announcement towards the end, on the newest thing coming to LA’s fusion dance scene!
Memorable Quotes:
"If you’re living for people’s validation, you’ll die from their criticism."
"You wouldn’t pick apart your friends, so stop doing it to yourself."

Have you ever walked into a dance floor (or really, any room) and felt the sting of not being welcomed? That awkward "where do I fit in?" moment? Yeah, us too. In this episode, we’re diving into the heart of why dance cliques form, how they hinder community growth, and simple ways to foster inclusivity. Oh, and we’re also tackling one of the trickiest dance dilemmas: how to say "no" to a dance gracefully. Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:
The Tango of Saying "No" To A Dance: Ever felt awkward turning down a dance? We share three simple, graceful ways to say "no" to a dance. Dance Cliques: We’ll explore the subconscious motivations or insecurities behind exclusivity and how cliquey behavior can hinder growth, certain factors that create the perfect environment for cliquey behavior, and simple ways people can feel included. Building bridges and community is everything. By understanding why cliques form and learning how to lead with hospitality and grace, we can create spaces where everyone feels they belong. — CONNECT WITH US!

Today, we’re diving into a topic that every dancer (yes, even the most passionate ones!) has faced at some point: burnout. Or as some people in the partner dance community like to call it, feeling "swung over." Whether it’s from too many late-night socials, rigorous practices, or even the mental and emotional demands of dance life, burnout is real. And it’s a conversation we need to have. What You'll Learn in This Episode:
The Burnout Connection: How burnout from dance mirrors other life experiences you have been through Signs of Burnout: From feeling bored or checked out to emotional exhaustion and even physical aches, we’ll unpack the telltale signs that it’s time to pause. Breaking the Routine: Why changing up your dance scene, trying a new style, or even taking a complete break can reignite your excitement. The Power of Rest: Learn how to recover effectively from burnout and give yourself permission to miss dance. Why This Matters: Just like an athlete recovering from an injury, giving yourself time to heal from burnout ensures you come back stronger, more inspired, and ready to shine on the dance floor. It’s okay to step back, reset, and embrace rest—whether that means slowing down your social schedule, indulging in self-care, or simply allowing yourself space to process. If you’ve ever felt the burnout blues, this episode is here to guide you back to your joy. So settle in, and let’s chat about how to keep dance (and life!) fresh, fun, and fulfilling. Ready to reignite your passion for dance? Tune in now and let’s get you back on the dance floor—feeling better than ever! — CONNECT WITH US!

Healing Through Movement: How dance helps move stuck or unspoken energy, both as a solo practice and when engaging with others.

Falling in Love with Life Again: How dance can reinvigorate your sense of romance—not just with others, but with yourself, your body, and life itself.
Building Connections: The beauty of connecting with people from all walks of life through the shared language of dance and unexpectedly getting support from them during difficult times
Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or just curious about how movement can impact your emotional and mental health, this episode is packed with inspiration, vulnerability, and a deep appreciation for the magic of dance. Tune in to hear these honest and moving stories—and discover how dance can help you heal, express, and connect on a whole new level.
