HEALTH & MINDSET COACH FOR DANCERS
SASKIA DE BADTS
10:30-11:30 UUR
Great dancing requires more than just training technical skills. How do dancers make sure they can still perform when the pressure is on, when self-doubt kicks in, or when things simply aren’t going their way?
With over 45 years of experience in the dance world, combined with her expertise as a Health & Mindset Coach, Saskia helps dancers become stronger not only physically, but mentally as well. Her goal is to help dancers get the most out of their performance while continuing to enjoy what they do.During her interactive workshop, Saskia takes coaches, parents and dancers into the mental side of dance. She covers topics such as dealing with pressure and disappointment, building self-confidence, and making the step from knowing what you need to do to actually doing it — and continuing to do it.Expect relatable situations and practical tools that you can start using straight away — in the studio, during training, at home and on stage.
FEELING SOUNDZ
URVIN MONTE
12:00-13:00
You may know Urvin Monte as one of DDO’s MCs, but alongside his work on the mic, he also runs his own company: FeelingSoundz.
With years of experience as a dancer, DJ and producer, Urvin knows just how important the right music is to a choreography. Through FeelingSoundz, he helps dance schools create and fine-tune music mixes for competitions, showcases and performances.
Whether you already have a mix that needs some extra work or want to create something completely from scratch, every mix is tailored to the choreography, timing and vision of the dance school.
During this session, Urvin will share more about what goes into creating a strong competition mix, give you practical tips & tricks for mixing your own music, and answer any questions you may have.
The goal? Music that doesn’t just sound great, but enhances the choreography and helps dancers make an even bigger impact on the competition floor!
BACHATA WORKSHOP
LINDA
13:30-14:30 UUR
