At Starbound, the classroom is just the beginning. Some of the most magical memories happen when our dancers step out into the community — from Boo Fest and holiday parades to competitions, theme parks, and even performing at an Orlando Magic basketball game.

In this episode, I’m joined by five of our amazing Starbound Performers students who share their favorite highlights from the year. We’ll also talk about why these experiences matter, how performance opportunities build confidence and resilience, and tips for studio owners and teachers who want to create more moments like these for their dancers.

✨ Highlights in this episode:

  • Fall fun at Boo Fest
  • Holiday season sparkle: the parade & Give Kids the World
  • Winter excitement: Orlando Magic game performance
  • Spring traditions: competition season & Pig on the Pond
  • Extra magic at theme park performances
  • Why performance experiences matter for dancers, parents, and studios
  • Teacher and studio owner tips for creating performance opportunities

🎧 Whether you’re a parent, dancer, or studio owner, this episode will inspire you to see how dance becomes even more magical when we take it beyond the classroom.
