"Emily has worked with my daughter for a little over a year and has created a wonderful relationship with her! My daughter is a ballet dancer and struggles with confidence and perfectionism that has at times inhibited her growth as a dancer. Emily has been very helpful in her dance journey and instrumental in getting her into a better overall mindset with dance. My daughter has felt tremendously comfortable with her and she has served as a grounding force and sounding board for her. We are so grateful to work with her!" - Anonymous
Maybe your dancer…
- Is riddled with nerves when it’s performance or competition time
- Performs beautifully in class, but doesn’t perform to her full ability in auditions
- Has built the belief within herself that she’s “just not a turner” (or any other limiting belief)
- Freezes at the mention of improv
- Is a perfectionist and one of the most self-critical people you know
- Has really big goals, but isn’t sure she can actually achieve them
- Wants to set herself apart from the other dancers in the room, but instead ends up comparing herself to all the other dancers in the room
- Is coming back from an injury & feeling a bit hesitant or cautious
Maybe you…
- Want nothing more than to help your dancer reach her goals, but aren’t sure where to start
- Know that focusing on the “outside things” (such as mindset, nutrition, cross-training, recovery, etc.) will give her the edge she’s looking for
- Want to feel confident that her performance anxiety isn’t going to get the best of her while you’re watching from the audience
-
Want her to truly know just how beautiful and amazing she really is!
"Emily has made such a positive impact on me mentally. From the basic exercises and talking through thoughts and ideas, I have more control over my inner thoughts resulting in better dancing. Emily takes the time to discuss details that happened during the week and gives out great ideas to me to solve any hiccups I’ve had during the week, helping me learn how to map my way through things when something can be mentally challenging. I appreciate all the time Emily has dedicated to me and making me a mentally stronger person." - Keagan P.
Here’s the thing…
I’ve worked with so many dancers teaching these exact skills, and have witnessed SO many success stories!!
I’ve seen these dancers…
- Go from feeling so nervous before performances, to managing their nerves and being fully present on stage
- Go from feeling like they can’t stop overthinking or comparing themselves to others, to knowing how to manage their thoughts
- Go from not being able to see their own talent, to understanding what they are truly capable of
- Compete on some of the biggest stages around the world and maintain their confidence the entire time
- Earn scholarships to their dream ballet schools and summer intensives
- Learn to step out of their comfort zone & find new styles of dance that they enjoy
- Master new variations, solos, or even combinations in class, that they previously would’ve assumed were too difficult for them
- Change their view of perfectionism and strengthen the passion they feel for dance
- Return to the studio after an injury
There’s nothing I love more than watching a dancer reach their goals & perform to their full ability while maintaining a healthy mindset along the way!
"Working with Mrs. Emily this past year at Champion Mindset Consulting has been a game changer for my physical and mental performance as a dancer. I came in feeling unsure of my capabilities as a dancer and less confident in myself, but I came out more confident and mentally stronger than ever. Thank you Mrs. Emily at CMC for helping me reach where I am now!" - Bella M.
Hi I’m Emily - your mental performance coach!
After I received my master’s degree in sport & exercise psychology, I began coaching athletes (mainly dancers and gymnasts) to help them improve their performance with the use of mental skills. I grew up doing ballet pre-professionally, so I know firsthand how difficult and demanding the dance world is physically AND mentally.
Many dancers have a very “type-A”, perfectionistic personality. They have really big goals, but are often super self-critical of themselves. Oftentimes, this comes from a good place - they have big expectations and are eager to achieve their goals. BUT what they don’t realize is that the constant nitpicking is actually causing more frustration, slows their progress, and drops their confidence.
This form of training is non-negotiable for serious dancers, and while I believe group seminars regarding mindset are wonderful…I firmly believe that there is nothing that can replace, or be as effective as, individualized coaching. Mental performance coaching is something that I wish I had access to when I was dancing. My goal now is to make mental performance coaching accessible to all dancers!
This is why I’ve created Champion Mindset Academy™ for Dancers - the most effective, streamlined training program available on its own (for dancers who wish to be independent) OR in combination with one-on-one coaching sessions (available in person or via video call)!
I can’t wait to meet you! Let’s get to work!
