Tap, Survive, Repeat Leta’s Guide for Neurodiverse Dancers at Big Events

Send us Fan MailTune in as Leta shares her personal strategies for navigating the high-energy, sensory-rich world of tap festivals. These spaces are designed with neurotypical dancers in mind, not neurodiverse autistic dancers. From finding quiet corners to using headphones and building connections with supportive friends, Leta opens up about what it takes to not just survive but truly enjoy these vibrant events as a neurodiverse dancer. This conversation isn’t about changing the festival. It’s about celebrating the unique ways neurodiverse dancers can enter spaces not meant for autistic dancers and make their own way.Check out our website https://www.letatapstyles.com for everything you have ever wanted to know about the podcast, to see profiles of former guests, and to see a list of Leta’s favorite things.Want to be a guest on Leta's Tap Styles (And My Autistic Life)?
