The Perfectionist Mindset

02/17/22 • 63 min

On this week's episode of The Dance Docs, I sit down with Dr. Scott Leydig PsyD to discuss a listener's question about perfectionism. Scott and I look a little deeper at what is perfectionism, why it may be common in the dance community, and how to identify and help a dancer who has this kind of mindset. We round things out with ideas for our teachers and instructors in understanding how to build a supportive environment for the dancer.

If The Shoe Fits

Hello and welcome back to The Dance Docs!

During an early episode Dr. Davenport and I mentioned how much we love talking about shoes, and many people responded that they wanted to know more. So on this week's episode Dr. Davenport and I sat down to discuss all things shoes and answer a few listener questions. We cover a wide range from sneakers to dance shoes, running shoes to CAM Boots and everything in between. I hope that you get a lot out of this conversation on all things shoes.
