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.

So You Took A Break From Dance... Now What? | Ep 132

If you’ve taken a break from dance and you’re thinking about coming back to it, this episode is here to remind you that dance is something you can always come back to.
Your body is going to remember a lot more than you think it will.
I talk about going to the gym and doing squats after I hadn’t done them in a really long time. Of course there were some things I needed to relearn, but there were also so many things that I just remembered because I had already taken the time to learn them before.
Dance is like that too.
It can be scary to come back because you haven’t done it in a while. You might feel a little out of place. You might look around the room and start comparing yourself to everyone else. And now you’ve created this opening for all of these negative thoughts to sneak in instead of paying attention to everything you already know.
Maybe you were meant to dance before and then you needed a break. And maybe now you’re meant to dance again.
We come back to things all the time. Look at fashion. Look at technology. Look at phrases we haven’t heard in years that suddenly everyone is saying again. Things come back.
And you can come back to things too.
Taking a break from dance doesn’t mean that part of you went away. You might be surprised by how much is still there when you decide to come back.
