M.O.V.E. with Eileen + Amy
M.O.V.E. with Eileen + Amy is a podcast that goes behind the scenes of the dance world. In a realm often portrayed as glamorous and perfect, we share candid stories that show the highs, lows, and dedication of dancers and movement artists from all backgrounds. Our mission is to normalize their experiences, challenge stereotypes, and illuminate diverse paths. Each episode provides a safe space for personal anecdotes, struggles, and pivotal moments, aiming to widen the understanding of dance. Join us as we break free from scripted narratives and reveal the true heart and soul of this art form.
A podcast for dancers and movement artists illuminating the person within the process of visceral artistry.
M.O.V.E. with Eileen + Amy
S2 E24 Shares Mini Series: What happens when we share authentically?
In the Season 2 FINALE Mini Series Episode, Eileen + Amy ask 4 questions to each other, the public (reading their responses) and past guests (sharing audio clips they sent in) from best and worst audition stories to cross-training to euphoric moments within the dance process to what they want to tell their bodies. The conversation emphasizes the importance of shared experiences and serves as a celebration of the journey and the lessons learned along the way (both within the industry and while reflecting on Season 2).
