Episode Synopsis


It's that time of year...the pressure's on to teach recital choreography, and so often that means "sacrificing" the class time previously spent on technique and conditioning.  Naturally, we have to continue working technique and conditioning in order for the choreography to look its best at recital time...sometimes, that can mean running the choreography over and over again.  But other times, additional measures are required to get your dancers performance-ready, and it can be easy to forget those when we feel the "choreography crunch!"  Here are a few of the ways that I continue to incorporate technique practice, core concept awareness, conditioning, and general performance preparedness into my lessons throughout the second half of the dance season while setting choreography on my students.Other episodes referenced in this episode:Listen to the "Curriculum Building" Episode HereListen to the "Teaching Choreography" Episode Here Theme Music by GBMystical!  www.gbmystical.comJoin the Casual Dance Teacher's Network on Facebook HereFollow our Instagram account HerePlease Leave Us a Review on Apple/Spotify! <3
