Showing Off is often associated with being negative. But dancers need to in fact "SHOW OFF" their skills in auditions and to choreographers. How do our dancers show off in a way that is humble and kind? Can that even be done? Today Michelle Reagan: Dancer, Choreographer, and Author of Hey Dancers Lets Talk About It Joins us to discuss what makes a dancer shine without the pick me energy! Welcome to Two Dance Moms Podcast!

We’ve been told time and time again that nutrition plays just as vital a role as training in performance for any sport. But with dancers’ schedules and competition weekends as taxing and limited for time as they are, dance parents are often left stuffing some crackers into their kids before and after they go on and praying they'll eat when the day slows down. To help us understand what we should prioritize in nutrition for our dancers and help us understand when, how, what and why our dancers should eat before and after dancing, we are bringing on a new guest to the pod, Bella Platevoet. A former dancer, a dance consultant, a certified personal trainer and the owner/founder of the dance consulting agency, BluPrnt Dance Consulting, Bella is here to help shed some light on dancer nutrition for us. Welcome Bella and Welcome you all to Two Dance Moms Podcast!

Why is dance so expensive?! Competition season bills are hitting their high as the season starts, but we can't always pinpoint why it's so costly! In this episode we discuss our own experiences paying for competition dance, how studios bill, what competitions charge and why. Our good friend Chris Suchan from Plantinim Dance also joins in on the conversation to share his professional voice on things competitions and conventions need to pay for that contribute to our costs. You won't want to miss this!
