In this workshop we explore the many performance fears that dancers experience, learn how they can be helpful, identify when they become unhelpful and practice managing them in the moment.

Self-Talk with Dr. Mitch
Just incase you wonder what Mitch is talking about at the very beginning – because of some tech issues we trimmed 5 mins off of the beginning whilst Mitch was figuring it out. #sillymitch lol
Ok, grab your pen and journals and let’s learn.
*NEW Performance enhancing mental skills with Dr. Mitch.
As Mitch says when he’s asked about what will help a dancer’s mind before they go on stage.. “It depends.” And of course it does because we are all so different. Let’s see what we can do to help our unique self.
*NEW ‘WHYrish dance? Motivation workshop with Dr Mitch.
Pre practice encouragement, body gratitude, breathe, mobility, goals & intentions!
In this class I encourage body gratitude, acceptance, we do the cyclic breath for calm and focus as well as a full body mobility sequence, then we set a goal and intention for the day or dance class. A nice little boost I hope! It can be easy to get swept up in the challenges that dance can bring, this class might help you to shift perspective a little and bring you back to a place of kindness towards yourself and gratitude. I hope the poem shared, my thoughts and insights as well as the movement piece are good to you. As always, I am interested in your thoughts and feedback 🙂
Yoga blocks might come in handy and a yoga mat. Feel free to spend more time in any particular movement given if you wish.
Enjoy it!
