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."
