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.

The Real Meaning of "Fearless" | Ep 28
This episode is about what being fearless really means. We always think we need to wait for fear to disappear...instead we get to bring the fear along for the ride.
I share one of the most terrifying moments of my life right before my knee surgery. How I examined my identity. Dance has always been who I am, and facing the possibility of something happening during surgery is what made me question the decision I was making.
Fear became my signal that what I was about to do mattered. It pushed me to lean into trust, make the hard decision now instead of living with the hard forever, and move forward even when I was the most scared I have ever been!
The myth is that we have to wait until we’re “ready” or until fear goes away. The truth is that if you lean into trust the fear never leaves... it gets quieter.
