There is a temptation to see time spent on one area of your life as a waste. I would agree... If you stay there. However, if you switch from one area to another it is no longer a waste of time - it's cross training. Choreography done in My socials: YouTube IG TikTok Facebook

Do straws have emotions??? Well. Maybe not. But if you imagine that you - as a dancer - act like a straw when performing... Then yes. Straws are actually very emotional. Check out the BeatHunter Dance Website for lesson and coaching information Follow me! YouTube IG TikTok Facebook

Now that we've gone through all the False Identity episodes, it is time to end the season with everyone's goal: True Identity. Joel gives his view on how to achieve that using The Principle of Reactionary Identity and some guy named Newton...

Sometimes we know who we are but the path to get there is blocked by a wall... Or four. And who put it there? Us. There are four types of walls that we put up which block us from living in our identity and the key to all four of them is self-awareness.

We've all been there: You're editing a photo to post to social media and end up putting waaaayyy too many edits. It look weird and cringy and not-postable. We also do this with our identity. We crop things out, add filters, put things into or out of focus, etc until eventually, your real identity has become a false identity that we don't even like. It's time to hit refresh. http://www.beathunterdance.com/

We should all admire other dancers. They have unique identities that can be inspiring... But what do we do when inspiration becomes imitation and steals away our uniqueness?

Who I am, Why I'm doing this season, and how your identity is your past and your present working toward your future.

Perspective is everything. A parents divorce created a dance instructor who loves his students like the Lord loves them.

The retelling of how Joél foundation came at exact time it needed to.

Episode 2!! During this episode, Joel recounts his decision to audition for a dance company, how he ends up not joining, and how it rebounded him down the path that the Lord had planned all along.

The very first episode of the very first season of our podcast, we start at the beginning: who Joel Casanova is and why integration is so important.
