Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Strip Journey, I get to talk to a friend and fellow dancer Tara. We talk about differences on starting dance from a young age and later, as well as our experiences from classes and how we percieve ourselves. Tara is a Finnish dancer, dance teacher, and certified dance judge currently residing in Tallinn, Estonia. Tara also shares her extensive dance journey, starting from her childhood in Finland where her mother set up a dance studio, to her current passion for high heels and frame up dancing. Tara talks about the challenges of transitioning between various dance styles, the influences of her performance background on her work in reality TV, and her educational path in communication management and international business. She offers insights on the importance of exploring different dance styles, overcoming self-doubt, and the value of recording and reviewing dance performances. Tara also emphasizes the need to have fun and push personal boundaries for growth in dance.Tara’s instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tara_who/Tara’s blog: https://www.tarawho.fi/00:00 Introduction01:45 Tara's Dance Journey05:26 From Miss Globe to High Heels08:24 The Transition to Frame Up10:47 Balancing Dance and Career13:48 Challenges and Opportunities in Dance17:31 Teaching and Learning Dance22:34 The Impact of the Podcast24:51 Exploring Dance Workshops and Making Friends27:24 The Impact of Performance Background on Reality TV30:47 The Importance of Filming and Self-Review in Dance33:50 Overcoming Self-Doubt and Embracing Challenges41:01 Advice for Aspiring Dancers
