More Than Dance
Dance. Mindset. Motivation.
More Than Dance is where real life meets the dance floor.
Hosted by Krissy Phillipino, a dancer, choreographer, and studio owner with over 30 years in the industry. This podcast dives into the mindset reframes and quiet magic that take shape in the choreography, inside the studio, and through the work of showing up for yourself over and over.
Expect episodes packed with storytelling, dance wisdom, raw truths, and the kind of pep talks you didn’t know you needed.
This isn’t just about dance.
It’s about who you become when you let yourself go all in, even through the ugly stages, the moments when nothing feels like it’s clicking yet, and the times when you question yourself.
From confidence and self worth to mindset shifts and breakthroughs More Than Dance is where movement meets transformation.
Whether you're a seasoned dancer, brand new to movement, or simply someone who craves personal growth and deep, honest conversations, this space is for you.
Because this was never just about dance.
It’s about who you become while dancing.
It’s more than dance.

How To Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone | Ep 16
This episode is all about knowing yourself as a dancer and as a learner. We talk about the difference between your comfort zone, your sweet spot, and your survival zone and why understanding all three is crucial for your growth and to avoid spiraling into overwhelm.
- The comfort zone is cozy and you wont be able to stretch there
- The sweet spot is where challenge is approachable
- The survival zone is where everything feels like too much ...growth is tough there because the nervous system is tapped out.
Learn how to get out of your comfort zone, be in your sweet spot, and quickly shift into your sweet spot in a survival zone situation. Train yourself by changing expectations and letting go of perfection with a slight shift in our intentions throughout a dance class.
