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 Build Your Dance Wardrobe As An Adult Dancer | Ep 60
Think of this episode as the follow-up to Episode 34, Why the Costume Matters, but this time we’re getting practical, playful, and a little rissky.
In this episode, I walk you through exactly how I build my dance outfits: how I search for pieces, why textures and layers matter, how to balance comfort with confidence, and how to pick outfits that actually support your movement. We talk backups (and backup backups), sweat solutions, tape tricks, dressing-room burpees, and how the right outfit can shift your entire connection to your dance.
This is your guide to finding the sweet spot of where you feel safe enough to dance full out, bold enough to step out of your comfort zone, and grounded enough to look at yourself in the mirror with love.
Building your dance wardrobe doesn't happen overnight and your dance wardrobe is one of the best ways to celebrate your body through dance.
I walk you through 13 steps to making your dance wardrobe and your experience in class the best it can be
