Welcome to Freestyle Thoughts, a Dance Podcast! Today I'm joined by a friend and fellow dancer, Cindy Ye. Cindy is a graduate student and extremely talented dancer. Our paths crossed when we were in the same university club, and we had a very fun conversation about our experiences returning to a dance studio/club as well as our thoughts on covers vs. reinterpretations of dances. Please mind my use of the non-word "reinterpretated", clearly I just wasn't really thinking before I spoke, haha!
Welcome to Freestyle Thoughts, a Dance Podcast! We've all had good and bad teachers/coaches--let that be in school or our chosen extra-curricular. Today I'm talking about two of the most memorable "bad" dance teachers (one technically wasn't bad, she was just a little quirky) and some of the memories I have of them.
Welcome to Freestyle Thoughts, a Dance podcast! Today we change up the formula a little bit and we're talking specifically about the big new that has impacted my dance life in 2024. This episode had been in the works since January and the real life events that inspired these episodes kept on getting "sequel" moments until the episode evolved into what it became.
Welcome to Freestyle Thoughts, a Dance Podcast! Today I'm joined by old friend and fellow dancer, Angelina Tram. Angelina is also a dancer who has their roots in Chinese dance, and she was able to find time to sit down and chat with me about our mutual love for Chinese dance, some of our moments together doing martial arts, as well as our proposed business plan for 2035.
Welcome to Freestyle Thoughts, a Dance Podcast! Today, we're talking about Chinese dance again, specifically about my journey to bring Chinese dance (the art form) to my university campus, the ups and the downs. I'm trying something new by incorporating some of the dance music as segue music but also as a more quantifiable way to talk about dance, a visual medium, using an auditory medium. Message our Instagram (@freestylethoughts_podofficial) if you hate it, love it. The dances references are all here: Zui Chun Feng (audio mishap, awkward speech excluded), Zui Chun Feng (campus LNY event, awkward speech INCLUDED), Tian Yu (Cypher, good speech)
