Hello Everyone,
Today is an inspiring episode.
🧠 Inspired by W. Timothy Gallwey’s 'The Inner Game of Tennis'
🎧 In this episode, we're diving into the powerful teachings of The Inner Game of Tennis – a book that, although written for athletes on the court, holds absolute gold for dancers in the studio.
You’ll discover:
✔️ Why the biggest battle isn’t against your technique – it’s against your own mind
✔️ How to quiet the inner critic and tap into flow
✔️ The difference between Self 1 (the thinker) and Self 2 (the doer) – and how learning to trust your body can transform your dancing
✔️ Why overthinking kills performance – and how awareness, not judgment, leads to improvement
✔️ How to stop “trying harder” and start “allowing more” in your artistry
Whether you're preparing for an audition, stuck in a perfectionist loop, or just want to dance with more ease and confidence, this episode will shift how you think about training forever.
You don’t need to play tennis to benefit from this book – you just need a desire to perform freely, fully, and fearlessly.
