Once you become a coach, a teacher, a care giver you will realize how other people’s lives mean so much to you. How all you want is for them to succeed. That’s a life worth living. To help others help themselves.
@dancemomtruth@dancestudi0prob Had a mom steal the car tags off our ballet teachers car and put them on hers. She was randomly pulled over for speeding and had the cops call the studio asking one of us to come get her daughter claiming the ballet teacher must have put her tags on her car as a joke! 🤦🏼♀️
👏Stop👏The 👏Tate 👏McRae👏Foot👏. No one should be doing that move anymore. Not even Tate McRae. It looks like someone has their hands full and needs their toes to scratch a bug bite on their leg. It’s stupid!
Just a general thought from a SO: If attending a small studio where the SO knows every single child personally and their abilities, STOP questioning where they place your kid. It is for a reason. They are NOT punishing your kiddo! Let us do our job PLEASEEEEEE
Coaches: When you work with youth, their development trumps winning games. The emphasis should be on teaching skills & teaching them to play correctly. Not teaching plays & playing zone. Winning is important but not more so than teaching fundamentals. Start w/ the ending in mind.
My comp students keep saying to me, “Wow, we’re moving fast this year, and every dance is wonderful, and why is everything so great?” Well sweeties, this is what happens when all the trash has left the studio finally 👋🏼 #productivity Everyone who is left is here to work!
Teachers: if you aren’t offering your classes depth and inspiration, and if youre putting routines on stage yr after yr looking same ol same ol... dont be mad when you’ve been replaced. It’s all about SUBSTANCE
You're never too good to take class with someone younger or less skilled than you. And you'll become stronger by continually revisiting the basic foundations of your training.
Butt glue is as important of a costume piece as a bra. By this point in the season you should have realized that your rear end is eating your costume and you need glue.
Anyone else live this rollercoaster of 200% motivated one day ready to take on the world, revamp studio, be the best & then the next day -67% motivated to do anything with my life, i suck at dance and I should prob apply to McDonald’s kinda day. I need to know this is normal...
Please tell me that every SO has thoughts of the “free” life at the end of every season. I love what I do but I can’t lie I always think what if I didn’t have to spend my day typing up PDFs that ppl don’t read 🤔
