In this workshop, led by Maria, a full-time psychologist, we will discuss the common dancer experience of “stage fright” (also known as performance anxiety). We will explore some underlying factors that contribute to stage fright, and provide some tips and strategies that can help you manage when symptoms come up. The workshop will be mainly lecture, with some journaling, as well as self-reflection and experiential exercises. Important notes:
This is not a dance workshop. We recommend you bring a journal and pen. This workshop is educational and is not a replacement for mental health therapy. This workshop is offered in-person only and no recording will be available.
