About this listen
In this episode of Step Up Your Studio, Angela and Steve D'Valda Sirico sit down with the legendary Liz Imperio—Emmy Award-winning director and choreographer who has worked with icons like Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jackson, Gloria Estefan, Madonna, and more.
Liz shares her journey from the big stage to her passion for shaping the next generation of dancers, with a special focus on the vital role parents and teachers play in a dancer's growth.

- How parents' words and attitudes impact a dancer's confidence and performance
- Why self-awareness and critical thinking are as important as technique
- The difference between "dance parents" and "parents of dancers"
- How educators can better align with families to create lasting success
- Why the lessons of dance extend far beyond the studio and stage
