Season 3, Episode 3 - Ballet and barley with Tanya Trombly
Ballet and barley?
Today’s guest is Tanya Trombly. She is a professional ballet dancer based in New York City. She dances freelance around the U.S., and is the founder of a fitness and nutrition company in NYC. For the past several years she has been a guest artist in the Iowa State Center’s performance of The Nutcracker, where she also dances in a STEM-focused performance. This version of The Nutcracker is intended to introduce young Iowa students to the confluence of dance, science, and engineering, and is sponsored by Iowa 4H.
Join us for a conversation about communication. Whatever your field, communication is critical. In science, we historically have very defined ideas about what this means – conference presentations and journal papers most commonly. Perhaps we should expand our understanding of what communication means. Throughout human history dance has been an important means of communicating ideas without the spoken word.
More information about her work can be found at her website, Bulletproof Ballerina.
Thank you, Tanya, for a great conversation about communication!
