Minute Masterclass Episode 84

Welcome to your one-minute masterclass. I’m Andrea Trench, founder of DiscoverDance and creator of the Foundations Course for Early Childhood Dance Educators. The success of the first day of dance class sets the tone for how the following weeks will occur. On the first day of class, arrive early, prepare your space, have your playlist and props ready and accessible, take a huge deep breath, and smile. If you listened and implemented the tips in our Minute Masterclasses episodes #81-83, you, your students, and their families are prepared and excited for dance day. Enjoy!  If things don’t go as planned, which they won’t always, remember that many times it’s our unrealistic expectations we set for ourselves and our students that lead to disappointment. Reevaluate and try again.
