From Student to Dancer to Entrepreneur: Interview for The Background Dancer Podcast with Jason Yap

I NEVER thought I wanted to be a teacher! You see, I got my dream job when I was 34, with Pilobolus! I was on tour and it was an amazing experience, but... It honestly sucked. I was the oldest one there. It was hard on my body. I didn’t really want to do it. I came to the realization that I didn’t want to train in that way anymore. And that led to a whole transition of breaking up with this idea of being an active dancer. Long story short, I leaned into education and I fell in love with it. My students lit me up and my soul feels connected on a bigger level! In episode # 149 of the Dance Boss Podcast, I share an interview I did for the Background Dancer Podcast with Jason Yap. Jason and I dive into my transition from student to dancer to entrepreneur, the hardships I had to face to start my online dance business, and the many mindset shifts I had to make to grow my business.
