  • Ep.117 Fear of Performing. Dealing with Stage fright!
    May 4 2024

    Hello Everyone,


    Today I am joined by amazing Suvi Honkanen. We are talking about Fear of performing and the effects that can have on someone.

    We all to some degree have a certain amount of fear and anxiety when we are about to perform If it is a good amount of nerves, we can use this to our advantage and not let it cripple us and destroy our performance.


    • We discuss our experiences
    • The common theme between successful dancers
    • How to overcome fear of performing
    • How a different perspective can really help

    About Me Hello everyone! my names Isabella.

    I am the first British graduate of the Vaganova ballet academy in Saint Petersburg Russia. I was a soloist working with the Mikhailovsky Ballet and Eifman ballet. Now I live in London as a full time coach

    It's a hard industry so I am here to help with my insights and knowledge to make it a little easier for you all, as well as to hopefully entertain you with my content. Thank you for watching!

  • Ep.116 Coping with Injury. How to tell your teacher you have a problem.
    Apr 24 2024

    Hello Everyone! Welcome Back!

    Today we are going to be talking about telling your teacher you're injured and coping with injury. Being a ballet dancer is like being a race horse. When we are injured or in pain, it can feel soul destroying and absolutely terrifying to tell our teacher leading us to hide pain and be more chronically injured later which is not what we want.


    We are joined by Suvi my Vaganova buddy again in this episode. let's discuss!
