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 Dance Roller Coaster | Ep 101
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
One thing you might not know as a beginner dancer: learning dance is like a roller coaster. In this episode I compare the experience of learning how to dance to the experience of going on a roller coaster and this is one of my favorite analogies to use because of how much they align.
We definitely can assume that dance is not a treadmill, you know that, but I bet you didn't think it would be as crazy as a roller coaster. The ups , the downs, the not knowing where it s going. Hard to predict, lots of feelings, the unknown, feeling like you can't handle it.
Knowing this will train yourself for intensity and give yourself the opportunity of vulnerability which will enhance your learning and teach you about trusting the process and surrendering; amazing gifts to gift yourself.
