“Make every moment count on and off the stage, as you embrace focus, resilience, and calm with the power of mindfulness meditation.” – Chloey
1: Before practice meditation
This meditation has been created to help you enter each practice session with focus, confidence and motivation, cultivating the habits that lead to excellence.
Through guided visualization and breath work you can release distractions, focus on your intentions for class and work toward achieving your goals.
By starting each session with focused intention and a clearer mind, you’re setting the stage for continuous improvement.
“Make every practice count!”
2: Inner Coach meditation
Imagine having a supportive, encouraging inner voice within you, guiding you through any challenges and celebrating every victory.
This inner coach meditation is designed to help you quiet the inner critic and awaken the positive, motivating inner coach that every dancer needs. I hope this meditation will help you to build a mindset of resilience, self-compassion and unwavering self-belief.
You’ll learn to shift your internal dialogue from doubt to determination, from fear to focus.
In this meditation you will be turning down the volume on the inner critic and turning up the power of the inner coach while layering words of affirmations to support self – kindness and confidence.
3: RESET and refocus between dance rounds
This meditation is your powerful tool to help you!
After a challenging dance round it’s natural to feel discouraged or upset, but it’s not the end! This reset meditation is to help you acknowledge your feelings, release them and shift your focus back to your dancing and what you can control.
Through calming breath work and empowering affirmations, this meditation guides you towards letting go of frustration and finding the strength to refocus your mind, enabling you to head back onto the stage with renewed confidence.
“Disappointment is temporary – your potential is limitless.”
4: Pre performance anxiety felt in the body. (inspired by the many dancers that tell me they feel the stress and anxiety in the body and struggle to clear it)
Ease pre-performance anxiety with your body-centered meditation.
Finding a balance between anxiety and calm before a performance is key to optimal performance.
Feeling anxious beforehand can manifest as physical tension and unease in your body. This meditation has been created to help you to release this pre performance anxiety and cultivate a sense of calm, confidence and readiness.
“Turn nervous energy into your greatest strength. Step into your performance with ease and grace!”
5: Deep sleep meditation for pre performance
As you prepare for a restful night’s sleep, allow this calming guide to quieten your thoughts, ease your muscles and release the days’ stresses. This is a wonderful way to ensure a deep, restorative rest before a big performance. Prepare to dance with renewed energy and focus. How does that sound?
“Embrace the tranquility and awaken with renewed strength and grace.”
