Podcasts about dancers

After we filmed the podcast - the media started reporting on all the cancellations at the Kennedy Center. We then got “friendly inquiries” from CNN and The Washington Post asking if we were cancelling. This is designed to intimidate us and our cast and crew. It's like the mafia expressing concern for that nice restaurant - it would be a shame if something happened to it. They want us to buckle under the pressure. We will NOT.Below is our statement on the cancellation attempt. The OCTOBER 7 play will absolutely be on stage on January 28th.Good riddance to these taxpayer-funded cosplaying rebels. They seem to think producing art is about them feeling comfortable and cozy. Artists should always go where they feel uncomfortable, even unwanted—if they want to change the world, that's where they should be, instead of speaking into their taxpayer-funded echo chamber.These performative walkouts are for their friends and funders—they don't care about the wider audience or creating new audiences. And they wonder why so many theaters are struggling?Even their friends are bored with the woke, clichéd, and hectoring art they are producing. "Doug Varone and Dancers," the New York dance company, said their walkout was "morally exhilarating."That's very telling.They create to make themselves feel better, not the audience.We create to bring the truth to the audience. Good to see these woke “artists” leave the stage. It leaves more stage time for the rest of us who want to produce genuine art.We are already thinking about future events at the Kennedy Center.Phelim McAleer & Ann McElhinneyJust to remind everyone about what we are planning for the Kennedy Center.We are taking OCTOBER 7, our verbatim play, to the venue on January 28. The play will be in the beautiful Terrace Theater. We went to Israel after the October 7 massacres and interviewed survivors, the bereaved and heroes who fought back. We turned their testimony into the play that has been performed across the country from Off-Broadway in New York to the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. It has also been performed on several other college campuses - places that really need to hear the truth. The performance at the Kennedy Center will be intimate, raw, and unforgettable. Please watch the podcast to hear the full story - you can also get tickets at the link below. I really want to see you there. The New York Post said OCTOBER 7 was "Spellbinding..powerful and a sanctuary for truth. It breathes life into characters that will hopefully inspire people…When you can put yourself in the shoes of what these people went through, that's what creates empathy. That's very important ... right now in this country, regardless of your politics." So please come see the play. If you can't come to DC you can donate to fight the bullies and censors at the link below. And while the mainstream media is obsessing over the fake genocide in Gaza, 7,000 Christians were slaughtered by Islamist radicals in Nigeria in the first eight months of this year. However the mainstream media is pretending that they are being killed in a land war caused by climate change. This week we interviewed Brian Orme, the CEO of Global Christian Relief. He has been to Nigeria and has a team working to aid displaced, persecuted Christians, terrorized by radical muslims.Watch the scoop to hear what's really going on!And the Los Angeles Times shocked us, as they actually did their jobs and reported actual news on the true cause of the deadly Palisades fire and how the city administration tried to cover it up. Watch the scoop to see our coverage of the Palisades wreckage.    

Looking polished and confident in your dancing isn't always about doing more — often, it's about small the details. In this fan-favorite episode from the After Class archives, we're revisiting three small but powerful elements that can instantly elevate how you look and feel as an adult ballet dancer: hands, eyes, and head placement.We break down the subtle choices that make a big difference — from properly extending your fingers, to activating your eye line, to holding your head with intention — details teachers don't always have time to explain fully in class.Whether you're dancing at home or in the studio, these simple refinements can dramatically improve your lines, presence, and confidence. If you're listening again or tuning in for the first time, I hope this episode helps you dance with more clarity and ease. Let's get into it!

More highlights from The Stage Show. We meet Irish screen and theatre actor Stephen Rea, who talks about meeting Samuel Beckett early in his career. Rea so wanted to perform Beckett's play Krapp's Last Tape, he had the foresight to record his youthful self reading it. In his  production at Adelaide Festival, the audience got to hear those recordings.We head Back Stage to the hat maker's studio! In fiction there are lots of characters who are famous for their hats. Robin Hood. Sherlock Holmes.  Lady Bracknell (she needs a ridiculous hat). In our new series Back Stage, Michael meets theatre milliner Phillip Rhodes, who reveals how hats bring a character to life. Butoh is a dance form that started in Japan in the 1950s and was called 'the dance of darkness'. Dancers often wear white body paint and explore raw psychological states. But it can also be outrageous and funny, as veteran performer Yumi Umiumare tells us about her own life practising Butoh. Yumi's latest show was Butoh Bar: Out of Order II for Asia TOPA. First broadcast March 4 2025.

Oliver Till, Artistic Director of Kansas City Ballet School, walks us through ChoreoLab, their unique summer program that pairs aspiring dancers with emerging choreographers. The program runs two tracks: Movers (dancers 17+) and Makers (choreographers 18-24). Instead of traditional technique classes, participants collaborate on original work, learning about lighting, costume design, and tech rehearsals along the way. The focus is on the creative process, not just the final product, with dancers exploring new movement styles they wouldn't encounter in standard training. Oliver explains the application process, including in-person auditions for dancers and portfolio-based selection for choreographers. He discusses why the program culminates in a ticketed performance to raise the stakes, and how they've incorporated mindfulness sessions to support mental well-being during the intensive creative process. If you're interested in choreography, want to understand how professional work gets made, or are looking for a summer program that goes beyond technique, this episode breaks down what makes ChoreoLab different.

The Maker track is for aspiring choreographers aged 18 to 24. The program emphasizes collaboration between dancers and choreographers. Participants learn about lighting, costume design, and tech rehearsals. The focus is on the process of creation rather than just the final product. Dancers are encouraged to explore new movement styles and techniques. The application process includes in-person auditions for movers. Makers are selected based on their choreographic ideas and experience. The culmination performance is a ticketed event to enhance accountability. Mindfulness sessions are introduced to support dancers' mental well-being.  

In a small town in northern Ohio, a group of Mexican folk dancers will process through the streets on Saturday. They're celebrating the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

A recording capturing the energised nature of Cape Town, complicated by the historic struggles that have defined the country. This was an autumn day, blue skies and bright sunshine. This was during my first trip to South Africa, where I had started visiting to uncover information about my South African family and dad, who died when I was very young. Recorded by Daniel Mackenzie.

Welcome back to another edition of "This Weekend in White Supremacy," where we dissect the multifaceted and often harsh realities of modern America.As black individuals and immigrants in America, the group discusses feeling the chilling effects of living within a system entrenched in white supremacy. Much of the discussion centers around the enigmatic and controversial figure of former President Donald Trump; reflecting on his statements and their implications for communities of color, particularly Somali-Americans. This includes his recent "garbage" criticisms of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, which sparked significant discontent and fear among Minnesota's immigrant communities. Miracle passionately emphasizes the importance of supporting the Somali community and other marginalized communities in the face of hateful rhetoric. As a country, the responsibility falls on all of us to dismantle systems that create refugees and to embrace those seeking safety and a better life.And then there is the pervasive theme of affordability—once ironically deemed a “Democratic hoax” by Trump, despite his original (now flip-flopping) campaign promises. The cost of living, from the price of groceries to housing, continues to soar, exacerbating the struggles of regular Americans who yell tales of grocery bills that break the bank while the weakest links, Democrat leaders, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries fail to tackle the issues facing the working class and impoverished communities. This Week In White Supremacy continues to provide a platform for insightful and critical discussions, balancing humor, and seriousness to tackle pertinent cultural and political issues. 1HOOD's vibrant conversations serve to enlighten and engage audiences, encouraging broader awareness and action against injustice. Join them next week as they continue to expose white supremacy and advocate for a more equitable society for all people.--To help us build liberated communities through arts, education, and social justice visit our website 1hood.org to purchase your official 1HOOD apparel or consider making a tax-deductible donation to 1Hood Media. --WATCH THE SHOW: youtube.com/@twiws--FOLLOW 1HOOD youtube.com/@1hoodfacebook.com/1hoodmediainstagram.com/1hoodmediax.com/1hood--DISCLAIMERS: The views and opinions expressed during this presentation are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of 1Hood Media, 1Hood Power, and or its affiliates.

In this episode of HSS Presents, Dr. Melody Hrubes, the medical director of the HSS Performing Arts Collaborative, speaks with physical therapist Allison McKay about specialized assessment and treatment for dancers. They utilize DARI (Dynamic Athlete Research Institute), a marker-free 3D motion capture analysis, to assess strength and movement patterns in functional and dance-specific movements. Other specialized tools include force plates for measuring even weight-bearing during jumps and the Kinvent dynamometer for objective strength assessments like the hamstring-to-quadriceps ratio. The episode highlights injury prevention, the value of cross-training (like Pilates), and specialized concussion goggles to guide return-to-turn and dance after injury.

In this inspiring conversation, I'm joined by Robert Schultz - LA-based dancer, choreographer, educator, and founder of Artists in Training - to explore how dancers can build a thriving career in today's ever-changing industry.Together, we dig into how class culture has shifted in the age of social media, why dancers crave instant gratification, and the impact that “getting it on film” has had on training. Robert also breaks down how Artists Training was created to bring connection, consistency, and deeper purpose back to the convention model - helping dancers not just improve their technique, but understand who they are as humans and artists.This episode is full of honesty, humor, and powerful reminders about staying grounded, trusting your path, and never giving yourself an expiration date.Key Points in this Episode: Robert's early dance beginnings and how his first teacher recognized his natural talent The differences between the NYC and LA dance scene Why proper warmup, longevity, and technique still matter (and why he refuses to shorten class!) Professionalism on set: respect, communication, and the behaviors that get dancers rehired The creation of Artists Training and how it blends convention energy with mentorship and mindset work Studio culture: competition vs. community and the power of genuine support Why dancers shouldn't give themselves an “expiration date” when pursuing a professional careerConnect with Robert:INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/moveyoutoinspireAIT INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/artistsintrainingWEBSITE: www.aitdance.comLinks and Resources:Visit the Ballet Help Desk: https://ballethelpdesk.com/Get your copy of The Intentional Career HandbookLet's connect!My WEBSITE: thebrainyballerina.comINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/thebrainyballerina1-1 CAREER MENTORING: book your complimentary career callQuestions/comments?

In this special, uncensored episode, we step inside the world of the German National Youth Ballet, the BJB, an extraordinary ensemble comprised of nine professional dancers between the ages of 18 and 23, trained in both classical ballet and modern techniques. One of the very special features of the BJB is that they perform not only on professional stages, but everywhere dance can forge a connection - in schools, museums, nursing homes, swimming pools, and even prisons. Their work demonstrates that dance speaks across generations, backgrounds, and life experiences, creating unity through shared artistic encounter. This episode, made possible by the generous support of the Charlotte Uhse Stiftung, offers a candid look into the power of communication and collaboration at the heart of the BJB. It begins with a spirited conversation with Artistic and Pedagogical Director Kevin Haigen, one that starts with a small disagreement and unfolds into a passionate, thought-provoking exchange. It includes  contributions from all nine dancers of the BJB, who answer questions from young amateur dancers from Kansas City. And it concludes with Ballet Master Raymond Hilbert's reflections on connecting with audiences, the question of how a dance style is understood, and some of the most sensitive issues faced by the dance world. This episode promises to give you intimate insight into the philosophy, purpose, and daily reality of this remarkable ensemble. Thank you Kevin Haigen, Raymond Hilbert, Bronte Barnett, Eleftherios Sarafis, Hannah McCloughan, Miguel Alves Oliveira, Oskar Weissel-Hetzel, Taissa Pache Pimentel, Kohanna Williams, Javier Martinez, and Zofia Jabłońska for the interviews. bundesjugendballett.de cultureum.com

The two programs serve different levels of dancers, and our guests explain how each one works and what participants can expect. They discuss the school's teaching methods, how they work with different learning styles, and what it takes to move from student training to professional dancing. The conversation covers mentorship structures, choreography opportunities for participants, and performance requirements at each level. Katie and Zoica also share what traits they look for in successful dancers and how artistic director Edwaard Liang's involvement shapes the training experience. If you're researching summer intensives or want to understand how pre-professional ballet training works, this episode provides a practical look at what happens during these programs and why the school structures them the way they do. Learn more about The Washington School of Ballet's Summer Programs here: https://www.washingtonballet.org/nw-summer-intensives/ Takeaways: The Junior Repertory Experience is designed for aspiring dancers aged 12-17. The Senior Repertory Experience mirrors a company training week for dancers aged 15-22. Both programs culminate in a performance for family and friends. Edwaard Liang's involvement enhances the quality of training and choreography. Dancers learn to adapt quickly to different styles and choreographers. The programs focus on building stamina, artistry, and technical skills. Students are encouraged to ask questions about their future careers. Choreography and composition classes are integral to the training. The audition process is open to video submissions. The programs aim to develop well-rounded artists, not just professional dancers.

In this episode, Megan Kerrigan and Annabelle dive into the connection between enjoyment and progress in Irish dance. They chat about how, when the fun starts to fade, dancers often find themselves making more mistakes, losing focus, and feeling mentally drained, not because they aren't capable, but because they're exhausted. Together, they explore why enjoyment is such an important part of learning, how pressure can quietly build over time, and why taking small mental breaks can make a huge difference.

In Episode 89, we're back with our 5 Fun Things series! After a very busy stretch at Rhythm and Confetti, we're excited to reconnect and share what we've been up to. Here are 5 Fun Fall Festivities we've been up to at Rhythm since our last episode!1. Year-End Show Reveal Our annual Reveal continues to be one of the most anticipated events of the entire season. With a large graduating class and a need for lots of character opportunities, we built four days of clues leading up to the announcement. The reveal of The Greatest Rhythm Show: A Sparktacular Circus Spectacle—our circus-inspired spin on The Greatest Showman—generated huge buzz in the studio and online. Immediately afterward, we decorated our Fun Wall with themed banners and balloons, which became a favorite photo spot throughout the fall.2. Fun at the Fair with Senior Edge Company To celebrate the new show theme and give our seniors a night out, we headed to the North Georgia State Fair. The dancers arrived in Circus-inspired looks (with grads dressed as their individual show characters), and the bright fairgrounds provided the perfect backdrop for fun and colorful photos we'll use throughout the season. We created a scavenger hunt, divided them into teams, and sent them off to complete creative tasks—from snapping cotton candy pics to teaching dance moves to strangers. At the end of the night, dancers filled out a form with personalized compliments for each teammate. We compiled the messages into keepsake prints featuring a photo and all the notes from their peers.3. Year-End Show Retreat Our annual retreat remains a cornerstone of our season. We rented a peaceful Airbnb south of Atlanta to focus on planning the entire show—concepts, music, edits, costumes, costume orders, emails, dress rehearsal schedules, and more. The setting allowed for fresh air, walks, porch time, and the kind of creative space that makes the workload manageable. It was packed with productivity, but also with fun, food, and a little college football in the background.4. Halloweek at Rhythm Halloweek is always a fall favorite. Dancers dress up all week long, and our faculty goes all-in with coordinated costumes for a themed photo and video shoot scheduled during a staff meeting. This year, even with a circus theme in play, K-Pop Demon Hunter–inspired costumes absolutely dominated. Our adult classes also delivered full-out, spooky, highly produced videos with elaborate staging and costumes. Their commitment grows every year and the results are always a highlight!5. Raise the Roof and Hammer Out Hunger With construction still underway on our new studios, we leaned into a building theme for our fall community outreach. We launched a food drive benefiting MUST Ministries, and our Rhythm families responded with incredible generosity. A friendly competition between companies added extra excitement, with the winning group earning a pizza party. Next month we'll shift from food to warm clothing, collecting coats and winter wear for local schools. We always look forward to giving back to our community! That's our fall recap. If you'd like us to dive deeper into any of these topics, reach out by DM or email. And be sure to join us next time—we're heading into Camp Confetti reveal season, and we can't wait to share what's coming for summer!Let's Get Social!

The fae are all about liminality and change, an idea reinforced by the next pair of books we'll be considering in Changeling: the Lost's first edition run. We begin with Dancers in the Dusk, a hodgepodge of strange mechanics, curious foes, subtle magics, and new allegiances that all hearken back to the notion and feel of twilight. Sometimes this is overt, as with the Dusk Court and their focus on fatalism, and sometimes more abstract, such as when we flip through an astrological schema to talk about the symbolic nature of dreams. It's a heady mix of things that push the game into several new directions at once, which every good TTRPG book should strive to do. Join us for a spell as we talk about what worked and what didn't for each of us in this particular attempt... You can pick up the book for your own collection at https://www.storytellersvault.com/en/product/60527?affiliate_id=3063731, and while you're clicking links (or walking through dream-gates, as the case may be), do consider stopping by one of our social spaces as well: Discord: https://discord.me/ctp Email: podcast@changelingthepodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100082973960699 Mastodon: https://dice.camp/@ChangelingPod Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/changelingthepodcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ChangelingThePodcast your hosts Pooka G (any pronoun/they) gets a thrill out of conjugating gloam as a verb and finding new translations; some individuals are just like that.

As we know, dance demands immense physical, emotional, and mental commitment, of which pressures of perfection, rejection, and competition can weigh heavily on dancers. Hence, addressing these challenges requires not just mental health professionals but individuals who deeply understand the unique intersection of psychology and the arts.Enter Terry Hyde — a retired professional dancer turned psychotherapist who has dedicated his career to supporting performers with their mental health. Drawing from his own experiences in the dance world, Terry combined his two passions, dance and psychotherapy, to create Counselling for Dancers in 2017, an initiative aimed at helping dancers address emotional and mental health concerns. Having lived the life of a professional dancer with the ENB, Terry possesses an intimate understanding of the unique pressures and needs of performers.In this episode, we delve into Terry's transformative journey and his mission to destigmatize mental health in the dance community. Join me as I explore his insights, lessons, and pioneering efforts to provide performers with the support they need to thrive.

As adult dancers, we hear the word artistry all the time — but what does it really mean? And how can we actually work on it in class, instead of treating it like some elusive, mysterious quality only professionals have?In this episode, I'm joined by Chelsea Weidmann, founder of GeekyBallerina.com, who has done something truly special: she's defined artistry in ballet through nine clear, tangible elements that dancers of any age or level can develop.Together, we talk about how understanding these nine elements can help us bring more meaning, connection, and expression to our dancing — whether we're returning to ballet as adults or continuing to grow in our artistry after years of training.Chelsea's framework demystifies what artistry looks like, and instead gives us a clear, empowering way to practice it — from breathe and line, to dynamics and body carriage... and more! ✨ In this conversation, we explore:What artistry really means in ballet (and why it's not an indefinable quality)9 elements of artistry and how to cultivate themHow adult dancers can build artistry with intention and joyWhy developing artistry can reignite your passion for ballet at any stageIf you've ever wished you knew how to improve your artistry — this episode is your roadmap! Connect with Chelsea at geekyballerina.comPurchase her book Artistry Inside Ballet Technique, volume 1  on Amazon (affiliate link). Support the showFollow Hannah on Instagram @thebusybunheadExplore blog posts, merchandise & resources for adult ballet dancers like you at thebusybunhead.comPodcast produced by Mission Bridge Media.www.MissionBridgeMedia.com

Today's conversation is one that every dancer - current or retired - needs to hear. I'm joined by Kaylee Randall, a former professional dancer who spent nearly a decade performing on cruise ships, in theme parks, and in Las Vegas. After an incredible performing career, Kaylee made a bold move to Australia in 2018, where she founded Pivot for Dancers, a platform dedicated to helping professional dancers find meaning off the stage and confidently step into their next chapter.In this episode, Kaylee opens up about what it was really like to leave the professional dance world behind and how her own experience navigating that transition inspired the creation of Pivot for Dancers. We talk about the identity crisis and imposter syndrome so many dancers face after retiring, and how starting these conversations can help dancers connect on a deeply human level.Kaylee also shares practical advice for performers who might be wondering what's next. She encourages dancers to explore hobbies outside of dance, connect with non-dancers, and start side projects that might someday turn into a new career path. We also discuss how to identify and articulate the transferable skills dancers already have and how those skills can apply to surprising new fields (including coding!).This episode is a must-listen for anyone standing at the edge of a career pivot or curious about what life after dance can look like. Kaylee's perspective is empowering, grounded, and refreshingly real, reminding us all that the end of one chapter can be the beginning of something even more meaningful.Connect with Kaylee:pivotfordancers.com@pivotfordancers on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pivotfordancers/Pivot for Dancers on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@pivotfordancersLinks and Resources:Etoile Dance Competition: 10% off registration with code “BRAINY10” - https://www.etoilecomp.com/The Ultimate Audition GuideLet's connect!My WEBSITE: thebrainyballerina.comINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/thebrainyballerinaQuestions/comments?

Part 1? Starting around 1300 BCE, the (surviving) corpus of written documents from Egypt begins to increase dramatically. It's not clear why, but papyrus and ostraca are far more abundant for this era than anything before. Thanks to these records, we get many glimpses of daily life and personal concerns, from the society of the time; and we can enjoy some Small Stories of life in Ramessid Egypt.

Today on the Conversations on Dance podcast we are thrilled to have two fabulous guests: Maria Calegari and Bart Cook. We have have both Maria and Bart on the podcast before, but this married couple danced together and now sets ballets together, so we knew we had to get them on the podcast together to hear more about their careers and their work as repetiteurs for the Balanchine Trust and for the Robbins Trust. We talk through their experiences dancing together, then some of the specific ballets that they have set together: basically it's just an hour and a half of bunhead time. Maria & Bart are currently offering virtual and in-person private lessons for pre-professional and professional ballet dancers ages 15 and up. Lessons are structured to focus on your specific artistic goals to identify the stylistic and technical nuances that you can use to improve your movement quality, advice that goes beyond the typical class format.
