Podcasts about dancers

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?

Transcript:Ca: La Rambla de Barcelona és un lloc màgic a la tardor.En: La Rambla de Barcelona is a magical place in the autumn.Ca: L'aire fresc porta l'olor de castanyes torrades i les fulles cauen formant una catifa daurada al terra.En: The fresh air carries the smell of roasted chestnuts, and the leaves fall, forming a golden carpet on the ground.Ca: Els carrers estan plens de gent, de riures, de música i d'una energia especial, que només es troba durant els festivals de carrer.En: The streets are full of people, laughter, music, and a special energy that can only be found during street festivals.Ca: Núria, una artista de carrer, balla al ritme de la música amb un somriure captivador.En: Núria, a street performer, dances to the rhythm of the music with a captivating smile.Ca: Els seus peus es mouen amb gràcia sobre les llambordes, i els espectadors l'observen embadalits.En: Her feet move gracefully over the cobblestones, and the spectators watch her in awe.Ca: Però dins seu, Núria sent un desig ardent de sortir de la rutina.En: But inside, Núria feels a burning desire to break free from the routine.Ca: Somia amb actuacions de teatre grandioses, amb llums brillants i aplaudiments atrapats al sostre d'una gran sala.En: She dreams of grand theater performances, with bright lights and applause caught in the ceiling of a great hall.Ca: A pocs metres, amb la càmera en mà, en Jordi recull moments en imatges.En: A few meters away, with camera in hand, Jordi captures moments in images.Ca: És un fotògraf apassionat que busca aquella instantània que encapsuli l'ànima humana.En: He is a passionate photographer looking for that snapshot that encapsulates the human soul.Ca: Els seus ulls són atents, observant-ho tot, però sovint se sent desconnectat de la història darrere de cada rostre que fotografia.En: His eyes are attentive, observing everything, but he often feels disconnected from the story behind each face he photographs.Ca: El destí els uneix quan els ulls d'en Jordi es fixen en Núria.En: Fate brings them together when Jordi's eyes fix on Núria.Ca: Hi ha alguna cosa en la seva dansa, en la passió que desprèn, que el fascina.En: There is something in her dance, in the passion she exudes, that fascinates him.Ca: Sap que aquesta és l'oportunitat que ha estat esperant.En: He knows this is the opportunity he's been waiting for.Ca: Es dirigeix cap a ella, però Núria el mira amb desconfiança.En: He approaches her, but Núria looks at him with distrust.Ca: Moltes vegades han pres fotos d'ella, però poques vegades l'han capturat de veritat.En: Many times they have taken photos of her, but rarely have they truly captured her.Ca: Amb paciència i tendresa, en Jordi li parla.En: With patience and tenderness, Jordi speaks to her.Ca: Li explica que vol fer una fotografia que mostri la seva essència, el seu somni, no només una imatge més de carrer.En: He explains that he wants to take a photograph that shows her essence, her dream, not just another street image.Ca: Núria dubta, recordant altres cops en què les promeses es van quedar en res.En: Núria hesitates, remembering other times when promises amounted to nothing.Ca: Però hi ha alguna cosa en la mirada d'en Jordi, en la manera com l'escolta, que la fa replantejar-se la seva decisió.En: But there is something in Jordi's gaze, in the way he listens, that makes her reconsider her decision.Ca: Finalment, Núria assenteix lentament.En: Finally, Núria nods slowly.Ca: "Només una fotografia", diu amb un somriure tímid.En: "Just one photograph," she says with a shy smile.Ca: Comença a ballar de nou, però aquesta vegada, amb el cor obert.En: She begins to dance again, but this time, with her heart open.Ca: En Jordi ajusta la lent de la seva càmera i, en aquell instant màgic, el temps sembla aturar-se.En: Jordi adjusts the lens of his camera, and in that magical instant, time seems to stand still.Ca: Clica l'obturador i, en aquell moment, capturen una instantània que parla per si sola: la passió de Núria, el seu desig de ser vista i la seva esperança.En: He clicks the shutter, and in that moment, they capture a snapshot that speaks for itself: Núria's passion, her desire to be seen, and her hope.Ca: Quan finalment mira la foto, Núria es veu a ella mateixa com mai abans.En: When Núria finally sees the photo, she sees herself as never before.Ca: En Jordi ha capturat la seva ànima, el seu somni.En: Jordi has captured her soul, her dream.Ca: Es miren i somriuen, conscient que la connexió ha trencat les seves respectives barreres.En: They look at each other and smile, aware that the connection has broken their respective barriers.Ca: La Rambla continua viva, amb música i gent, però entre Núria i Jordi ha nascut quelcom especial.En: La Rambla remains alive, with music and people, but between Núria and Jordi something special has been born.Ca: Ella sent que pot tocar el seu somni i ell ha après que una fotografia només és veritablement bona quan ve del cor.En: She feels she can touch her dream, and he has learned that a photograph is only genuinely good when it comes from the heart.Ca: Trepitgen el camí de tornada sabent que aquell encontre fortuït ha canviat el seu camí.En: They tread the path back, knowing that this chance encounter has changed their course.Ca: Per avui, tant Núria com Jordi han trobat una petita escletxa d'esperança i connexió a l'ànima d'una ciutat vibrant.En: For today, both Núria and Jordi have found a small sliver of hope and connection in the soul of a vibrant city.Ca: I amb ella, el vent de tardor s'enduu els dubtes, deixant només la certesa d'un nou començament.En: And with it, the autumn wind sweeps away the doubts, leaving only the certainty of a new beginning.

Many ballroom dancers have an issue with comparison! We see so many great dancers around us and want to be great as soon as possible! But looking around too much at what's outside us can lead to us neglecting the gifts that we possess. Dancers are interested and inspiring because each is different and unique. To be like everyone else would be a mistake! In this episode, I offer a bit of a metaphor to help us reset our perspective and gain renewed interest in what we have to offer and why focusing on that instead of what we lack will change your dancing in the best ways! Dance Strategy Calls are back on and you can ⁠book one now⁠ if you'd like to investigate private coaching!

Part 1? Starting around 1300 BCE, the (surviving) corpus of written documents from Egypt begins to increase dramatically.

Pridonishvili School of Popular Dance in 2001. As President of the International Association of Oriental Dance in Georgia and founder of her own belly dance school, Elen emphasizes the historical depth, elegance, and physical artistry of the dance.

Kerry James Marshall: The Histories at the Royal Academy of Arts in London is the largest ever European retrospective of the work of the US artist and has been greeted with universal critical acclaim. Ben Luke takes a tour of the exhibition with Mark Godfrey, its curator, and visits a related exhibition of Marshall's graphic novel project, Rythm Mastr, at The Tabernacle in Notting Hill, London, with the co-curator of that show with Godfrey, Nikita Sena Quarshie. Last week, the National Gallery in London announced that it will build a major new extension, at a cost around £400m, of which £375m has already been raised. Project Domani, as it is called, is billed by the National as the largest transformation since it was founded, 200 years ago. The National will also expand its collecting boundary beyond 1900 in a major shift in the division of UK national collections. The Art Newspaper's digital editor, Alexander Morrison, talks to the director of the National Gallery, Gabriele Finaldi. And this episode's Work of the Week is The Three Dancers by Pablo Picasso, one of the greatest of all the many thousands of works by the Spanish artist. The painting was made in 1925 and Tate Modern is celebrating its centenary with an exhibition, Theatre Picasso, in which The Three Dancers is the centrepiece. Ben talks to Natalia Sidlina, co-curator of the exhibition, and to Enrique Fuenteblanca who, with the artist Wu Tsang, has designed the radical staging of the exhibition.Kerry James Marshall: The Histories, Royal Academy of Arts, London, 20 September-18 January 2026; Kunsthaus Zürich, 27 February-16 August 2026; Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, 18 September 2026-24 January 2027; Rythm Mastr: The Chronicles, The Tabernacle, London, until 14 December.Theatre Picasso, Tate Modern, London, until 12 April 2026.Student subscription offer: stay connected to the art world from your first lecture to your final dissertation with a three-year student subscription to The Art Newspaper for just £99/$112/€105.

On this episode of The Adam and Dr. Drew Show, Dr. Drew kicks things off by reacting to James Comey's bizarre new video professing his love for Taylor Swift, sparking a conversation about how everyone seems to be campaigning for public approval these days. Adam points out the unsettling trend of old TV personalities like Ellen and Bill Cosby, who were always dancing and performing for the cameras, later being exposed as deeply flawed individuals, and he compares that same off-putting behavior to politicians like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton with their awkward laughter. Dr. Drew dives into how cognitive dissonance has warped people's ability to think clearly, while the guys also revisit an old Loveline clip of Jewel singing live, leading to a discussion on how unreliable our memories can be compared to what actually happened.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
