A Dancers Perspective
Welcome to the Podcast channel of A Dancers Perspective where we provide a platform for dancers and performers to talk about their perspectives and experiences in the industry. Our guests will include a variety of performers that are at different stages of their career and dive into their perspectives on topics such as training, auditioning processes, their gig life and work and how they have navigated the industry. This platform is not another self help platform where we give you the cookie cutter step by step plans on becoming a professional dancer but rather provide a community. A community where we bring together dancers to talk about their experiences that can help you feel like you're not the only one thinking a certain way and also help provide you insight on certain topics that can help encourage you on your own professional journey. If you have a topic that you would like to hear someone's perspective on or you think you have a pretty interesting perspective get in touch!
