Backstage and Beyond

Dance comps... We love them, we dread them, and somehow keep coming back for me!In this episode of Backstage & Beyond, we're diving into the wonderful world of dance competition, the highs, the lows and all of the chaos in between. From early starts and forgotten costumes to backstage meltdowns, emergency sewing kits, endless junk food, and the emotional rollercoaster of competition day, we’re sharing what really goes on behind the scenes.As dance teachers, we’re also talking about our values when it comes to competitions, what we hope our dancers gain from the experience, and why winning isn’t always the most important part of the journey.We’ll discuss the pressure, the friendships, the life lessons, the proud moments, and the chaos that every dance parent, teacher, and competitor will recognise.Whether you’re a seasoned dance mum, a competition veteran, or completely new to the dance world, join us for an honest, funny, and relatable chat about the reality of competition life.🎙️ Grab your energy drink, your emergency safety pins, and let’s talk competitions!
