The Truth About Competitive Dance No One Talks About
Adrenaline Dance Studio
Alex Anthony and Camila Salcedo, from Adrenaline Dance Studio in Miami, join us for a candid look at what competitive dance really looks like behind the curtain. They break down what makes their studio different, why they're selective with which kids they take on, and how kids' attitudes toward discipline have shifted over the years. We get into the politics of dance competitions, the economics behind tournaments, bullying inside studios, social media pressure, and the infamous mom fights. They also tackle whether dance is a sport, what sets Adrenaline apart, and their plans for the future. If you have a kid in dance — or you're thinking about it — this episode is essential.
