About This Podcast

Hey there, future dance superstars and parents! 🌟 Are you a high school dynamo with a passion for dance and a gazillion questions about where to take your moves after graduation? Look no further! Join us on an exciting journey through the glittering world of dance colleges as we help you pirouette into the perfect program for you!

In our lively and upbeat podcast, we dish out the deets on the nation's top dance colleges, bringing you the inside scoop straight from the experts themselves – Deans, Professors, and even some cool cats who've strutted their stuff on those very same dance floors!

Picture this... fun-filled episodes packed with insights, interviews, and maybe a sprinkle of dance-floor magic! 🕺✨ We're on a mission to uncover what makes each University or College shine, because let's face it, choosing the right college is a big deal!

As your guide through this toe-tapping adventure, I've been there, done that. Picture a small-town dancer from North Dakota (yours truly!) feeling utterly lost in the whirlwind of senior year. I wasted time and money galore on university-hopping before finding my groove. Now, I'm here to save you from the same dance detours!

Discover your unique dance destiny, avoid the pitfalls, and learn how to thrive in the program that will make you the absolute best version of YOU. 🎓
