HOW TO MAKE A LIVING OUT OF DANCE

g

Have you heard things like: you can’t make a living out of dance, or maybe, you think this way, but how come some dancers are living their dream? They dance full-time, and they even travel around the world. Are they special? Do they have skills that you and I don’t have?

I had the honor to interview a dancer I truly admire, not just because she started from scratch and both came from the same townhome and belly dance school, but because I know she has worked hard to become what she is today. I extracted the gold nuggets of the interview to share them with you:

  1. She realized she didn’t know enough to be able to grow as a dancer, so she put herself out there, even with fear, and started taking classes and workshops with professional dancers and instructors.
  2. She started traveling outside her country, out of her comfort zone, investing time and resources to learn and audition for The Bellydance Evolution when she was ready.
  3. She developed skills that she didn’t have to succeed: she manages her social media, edits videos, crafts courses and programs, emails, etc. 
  4. She is willing to take risks to do what she loves.
  5. She learned to connect with international belly dancers and be able to create alliances with them, like classes, workshops, and events during her visit to that specific place.

It sounds like a lot, and it is, but everything in life requires you to go the extra mile if you want to succeed. If you want to listen to the Episode, check it out on:
