THE PODCAST

Somebody had to ask

Most of what gets passed around in this dance is somebody's opinion wearing a lab coat. We take one of those assumptions per episode and see whether it survives contact with biomechanics, teaching experience, or just being said out loud to another person who's been doing this for twenty-odd years.

What we talk about

Biomechanics

Why a movement works, why another one hurts, and why "just relax" has never once fixed anything.

Teaching

How to run a class that produces dancers rather than students who can do a combination once.

The business

Festival economics, what artists actually get paid, why good teachers burn out and quit.

The parts nobody says out loud

Competition politics, gatekeeping, the leader shortage, comparison, ego.

What it actually is

Two Brazilians, a new episode every week, occasionally a guest who knows more than both of us.
No format tricks, no hooks engineered in a spreadsheet. We start with something one of us has been chewing on and we don't stop until it's either explained or admitted to be unexplained. The good episodes are usually the ones where somebody changes their mind on tape.
It's free and it stays free. If it's worth something to you, there's a way to support it, and that's the entire business model.
