In today's episode, I detail what my biggest tips are for heading back to dance in regards to physical and material preparation.

From warm-up creation to shoe shopping to computer system back-ups, we talk about it all! Because I have found that the more prepared I am, the better the dance teacher I am.

There are so many variables outside of our control, but there are a lot of variables within our control, and to me that means--prepare!!

I am so looking forward to hearing about the ways in which you prepare as well for a new season and make sure to check back in 2 weeks for my Back to Dance 2026 Part 2 episode where I detail ways to mentally, emotionally, and soulfully prepare for a new dance season.

If interested, head on over to Dance Teacher Pep Talk Patreon where all of our free meditations and resources are now available for you.

Make sure to follow my other podcast, Evolve Love, for daily general pep talks and motivation. 

If interested in the self-guided curriculum booklet I mentioned, you can access that here.

More is coming on Evolve Love soon too as a supportive and uplifting space.
