It's about time I invited Virginia (aka. Demi Pointe Dancewear!) on the podcast! Virginia was one of my very first adult ballet students and continues to take multiple classes with me every week. But what's really special is that Virginia started her small business out of my business! I always receive messages from people in the #BalancedBallerinas community about my students fashion and in particular everyones skirts…. They are almost always by Virginia who creates custom, bespoke designs

Whilst I'm sure you'll enjoy todays episode, it's really a selfish one as I want to capture this moment in time with my sister! Sophie lives in the UK and a couple of times a week I'll give her a call during my morning walk when the time difference works out perfectly. It was surreal to have her by my side during my morning walk this morning and half way through we decided to record a podcast episode today!

I had the most delightful conversation with a gentleman by the name of Terry Hyde. I say gentleman because Terry came to the interview via Zoom in what looked like a very organised study in a wonderfully dapper suit jacket. I on the other hand was in my pyjamas. Although my bed top is black, so it didn't quite look like pyjamas. But it was 5am in the morning for me, so my apologies if I take a moment to warm up in this interview. I really loved this conversation and found Terry to be

Louise grew up in country Lismore before heading to Brisbane’s Queensland Dance School of Excellence (QDSE) to finish school in full-time dance training. What I love most about Louise’s story is that although she started ballet late (12 years old is considered late in the world of ballet!) she was smart enough to realise that this disadvantage in the professional world of ballet didn’t rule her out completely in having a career within the industry… After her first pre-pointe assessment,

Ever wondered why some weeks feel like you have boundless energy resources whilst others are completely flat? Well your menstrual cycle might have something to do with that! Firstly, whilst I am an expert in ballet I am in no way an expert on health. However I have always been incredibly interested in how nutrition can impact my students and optimise their technique and training. One of the reasons why I started the Balanced Ballerinas Podcast is because it gives me the opportunity to
