In episode 225, Kara Tatelbaum (author of Putting My Heels Down, critically acclaimed choreographer, renowned Pilates teacher, and dance educator) shares an honest look at what it means to continue building a meaningful life in dance when things don't go according to plan. This conversation explores how dancers can navigate rejection, injury, burnout, financial reality, and evolving identity without losing their connection to movement or themselves. Kara opens up about growing up with physical limitations that teachers constantly criticized, making peace with a career trajectory that looked different than expected, and eventually finding fulfillment in places she never anticipated, including teaching preschool dance after years in higher education, choreography, Pilates, and the professional dance world. Galit and Kara also discuss the difference between being an instructor versus an educator, balancing artistry with survival jobs, the pressure dancers place on themselves to “make it,” and why stories from non-famous dancers still matter. This episode offers perspective for dancers trying to create sustainable careers, expand their definition of success, and feel less isolated in the realities that so many people in the dance world quietly experience.

Archie Burnett is a foundational voice in New York's dance and club culture (House of Ninja, Check Your Body at the Door and world-renowned teacher) - someone who's lived through and contributed to the environments that shaped social dance as we know it today. In this episode, we get into the realities of the club scene, the impact of policy and tragedy on nightlife, and how dancers adapted when everything around them shifted. Archie shares what it meant to learn through observation, community, and experience (long before social media). This conversation goes beyond dance into philosophy, identity, and the mindset that's carried Archie through decades of life, work, and movement.

In Pakistan beginnen offiziell die Gespräche zwischen den USA und dem Iran. Während Kanzler Friedrich Merz von einem „ersten Lichtblick“ spricht, bleibt die Lage hochexplosiv. Hinter der fragilen Waffenruhe steht ein komplexes Machtgefüge: Kann die NATO die Straße von Hormuz sichern? Und welche Rolle spielt Israel, das seine Angriffe im Libanon trotz diplomatischer Bemühungen mit Vehemenz fortsetzt? In dieser Sonderausgabe spricht Rixa Fürsen mit Julia Friedlander, Geschäftsführerin der Atlantik-Brücke. Als ehemalige Mitarbeiterin im Nationalen Sicherheitsrat unter Donald Trump analysiert sie die aktuelle US-Strategie. Friedlander beschreibt die Lage als „geopolitischen Stabmixer“: Trump rührt die Weltordnung um, bricht mit traditionellen Allianzen und setzt auf die Vermittlung von Mittelmächten wie Pakistan oder Saudi-Arabien. Die beiden analysieren, warum das transatlantische Verhältnis heute so unter Spannung steht wie nie zuvor und warum die USA ihre Alliierten nicht mehr als Luxus, sondern als Notwendigkeit begreifen müssen.

What if your thoughts were creating physical changes in your body? In this episode, we are looking at the science behind mindset and how your brain, your expectations, and your thought patterns influence your health in very real ways. From negativity bias to the nocebo and placebo effects, I break down the research that shows how your mind impacts stress, symptoms, and healing. You will learn why fear-based thinking feels automatic, how it affects your body, and how to start shifting your thoughts in a way that actually works. This is not about positive thinking. It is about understanding how your brain works and learning how to guide it.   Resources Mentioned: Work with Laura: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/health  Download the app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/breast-cancer-recovery-coach/id6720763813       REFERENCES Baumeister, R.F., Bratslavsky, E., Finkenauer, C., & Vohs, K.D.

This week on DanceSpeak, I sit down with Brian 'Footwork' Green, a master teacher and influential figure in street and club dance culture whose impact spans generations. Recorded live in August 2025, this episode captures Brian's unfiltered thoughts on musicality, lineage, and what often gets misunderstood about street dance. We explore competition versus convention culture, the realities of the dance economy, and the difference between who you are and the artistic name you move under. Brian speaks honestly about off-beat dancing, “auto-tuned” movement, teaching, trends, and what gets lost when dance drifts away from the heart. The conversation also touches on race, representation, and identity in dance spaces—layered, nuanced, and rooted in lived experience rather than soundbites. Insightful, funny, challenging, and deeply grounded in culture, this episode is for dancers who love dance enough to think about it, question it, and keep it alive.

In this episode, we turn the mic over to you, the listeners—and it turns out your teenage trauma and retail scars are universal.Segment One: Your First Job StoriesWe asked you to share stories from your very first jobs, and wow… you delivered. From the north, south, east, west—and yes, even Canada, the stories came flooding in. Fast food disasters, awkward uniforms, terrible managers, and that first magical (and tiny) paycheck.No matter where you grew up or whether it was the 70s or the 80s, it turns out joining the workforce for the first time followed the same script: confusion, humiliation, accidental insubordination, and memories that are still hilarious decades later. Proof that nothing bonds us quite like minimum wage misery.Segment Two: Mall MemoriesMalls may be a dying breed now, but once upon a time they ruled our social lives. With special guest Matt Friedlander, we dive deep into what made these climate-controlled wonderlands so special.From record stores and arcades to food courts, hanging out all day without buying anything, and the pure freedom of being dropped off with friends—this segment is a love letter to the mall era. We debate what we miss most, what will never come back, and why the mall was so much more than just a place to shop.

In episode 221, host Galit Friedlander and guest Kim Holmes (widely respected director, choreographer, dance educator) explore the roots of house and hip-hop culture through lived experience, mentorship, and time spent inside New York City's party and club scenes before these styles became widely visible. Kim shares her journey into dance, discovering house at a young age, and learning directly with pioneers like Marjory Smarth during a formative era that shaped how she moves, teaches, and thinks about longevity. Together, Galit and Kim reflect on what it meant to come up in spaces where culture was built in real time—long before social media or conventions—and how being “the it kids” back then came with both opportunity and responsibility. The conversation also moves into technique, recovery, listening to the body, trusting timing, and how mindset and intuition quietly guide long careers in dance. Originally recorded in 2019, this episode feels especially relevant today as dancers revisit foundations, lineage, and what it truly means to sustain a life in dance beyond trends.

Photo: Mrs. Crystal Claus, Peppermint the Elf, and Solte Santa, as portrayed by Colleen Payne, Qalch'ema Friedlander, and Jerry Payne, visit the Chifin Native Youth Center in Springfield, Oreg., Sunday, December 14, 2025. (Buffalo's Fire/Brian Bull) It's the holiday season with many families across Indian Country waiting for Santa's visit to reward all good children with presents. And while the mainstream depiction is of a jolly old elf who's white and decked out in a red, fur-lined suit, some Native Santas are inspiring yuletide cheer in their own ways. Brian Bull of Buffalo's Fire shadowed one across Oregon. At the Chifin Native Youth Center in Springfield, Oreg., a packed classroom welcomes Solte Santa, accompanied by Mrs. Claus, Peppermint the Elf, and others from the North Pole. Jerry Payne, the man behind the curly beard, explains his role. “'Solte' in Salish means 'warrior', so I wanted to honor that. And I'm a veteran myself. Every community has their own style of Santa so I wanted to make sure that the Indigenous Natives got to be represented as well.” Solte Santa has made nine appearances across Portland, Eugene, and other places this month, listening to kids' wish lists and posing for family photos. With a feathered bustle, candy cane staff, and festive beadwork, he contrasts sharply with the Coca-Cola Santa that's been widely iconic since the 1930s. But Payne says that's a plus. “The mall Santa or typical Santa that everybody knows like the Coca-Cola Santa … for whatever reason, kids are scared of that Santa. But I've had kids that … their parent would say that they would never come up to take a picture with me. Next thing you know, they're hugging me and jumping in my lap and we take a good picture. Their parents are crying because they never got a good picture with their kid.” A study involving an Oregon State University scholar looked at non-traditional Santas. Bori Csillag, Stirek assistant professor of management, said for many Father Christmases, spreading love and joy for the holidays surpassed the need to conform 100% to the mainstream depiction of Santa Claus. “They see the fit, they hear the calling in their heart, they know that they are able to portray their role successfully.” Besides Solte Santa, a First Nations dancer called Powwow Santa has been firing up social media, and there are many others across tribal communities, reminding people that the Christmas spirit exists for everyone. A Navajo children's television show returned this month with a holiday special. Jill Fratis reports. The “Navajo Highways” special is titled “Ya’ah’teeh Keshmish,” which is “Merry Christmas” in Navajo. It's the show's first full holiday themed episode. The creator of the series, filmmaker, and musician Pete Sands, says the show teaches Navajo language and culture. “Parts of it is my childhood, and part of it is how I wish my childhood was. It's a balance of both, and I think shining positivity on Indigenous cultures is important to do.” The series blends puppetry, storytelling, and Navajo humor, all set along the winding highways of the Navajo Nation. Sands says that a memory he had of a teacher using puppets to help children listen, gave him the idea to use them in his show. “Seen a teacher friend of mine who was trying to tell her first grade students to clean up, but they wouldn't listen to her, so she reached into her desk and she pulled out a hand puppet and started talking to her class, and they listened to her, through the puppet actually, and a lightbulb went off in my head like wait, maybe there's something to this. Maybe I can use this.” The holiday episode highlights traditional winter teachings, including family gatherings, gratitude, and the meaning of giving. Season two of the series begins production next year. Sands says there will be new puppets and new locations, but says the heart of the show remains the same: teaching children simple Diné words and phrases through everyday scenes and conversations. The “Navajo Highways” holiday special, and season one, is now streaming on the First Nations Experience (FNX) platform.

In episode 220, host Galit Friedlander and guest Chad Geiger (dance agent at The Movement Talent Agency) pull back the curtain on what representation really looks like from the agency side and what dancers often misunderstand about it. We talk about essential pieces of a sustainable dance career: communication, contracts, headshots and resumes that actually serve you, and how your choices off the floor impact your opportunities just as much as your training on it. Chad shares insight on navigating direct bookings, building trust with your team, and why “doing the basics well” is still one of the biggest differentiators in today's industry.

In this episode, Galit sits down with creator and educator Jason Pickett for a real conversation about the shifts happening in today's dance world. Jason shares his path from Utah's freestyle community to building a career outside the traditional LA route, and the mindset behind choosing what actually feels right. They dig into the responsibilities of teachers and influencers online, the short-sightedness that's causing dance studios and conventions business, and a shift in what dancers want to do professionally. Jason and Galit also explore whether competitions are watering down dance, how COVID changed the mentality of young dancers, and why the best teachers don't rely on the “combo.” This episode pulls back the curtain on connecting the generations, talent development, and what it really means to create good dancers - not just good perfectionists.
