DOAD #5: What steps should your dancer take to "level up"?

We found the answer was surrounded in mystery!

This week I try to answer the question “How can your dancer get to the next level?” When my son danced with a competitive studio, he was (naturally) interested in moving up to the higher-level teams. The path to get there, however, was shrouded in mystery. So we discuss:

  • Insisting on feedback from teachers/coaches on specific goals your dancer should pursue

  • Exploring a variety of opportunities outside your normal dance bubble/network (classes at other studios, weekend conventions, summer intensives, etc.). In other words: get your dancer in front of as many dance gurus as possible!
