More than a Dancer with Kaitlyn McDermitt

Today’s guest Kaitlyn McDermitt graduated from Southern Methodist University with a BFA in Dance Performance in 2012. She has performed with Roxey Ballet, Avant Chamber Ballet, Ballet North Texas and Bruce Wood Dance Project. Following her transition from performing, Kaitlyn saw a need for mindset training and personal development in the dance industry and created her coaching business Confidance. Her mission is to help dancers feel more confident in themselves in and out of the studio, find their identity through dance and live life to their greatest potential. We talked about transitioning studios, Royal Academy of Dance training, and distinguishing your identity from being completely rooted in dance - you’re not just a dancer.
