HIDDEN FACE OF DANCE

The “Hidden face of Dance” is a podcast that sheds light on the financial part and the “struggling side” of the dancer/ artist in the world. In each episode you will meet different humans talking about their experiences as a performer, teacher, student or freelancer : how can they financially support themselves, what made them start, what is the most challenging part of their career, what drives them to continue moving and which advice can they give to you?
