Over the years, I've watched so many dancers fall in love with dance and Waving.
They take a workshop.
Then another one.
Then a class.
Then an intensive.
Then another one.
Each time they leave inspired, excited, full of ideas and ready to practice.
But then…
Life gets busy.
The motivation slowly fades.
And so does the practice.
And before they know it, they're signing up for another class, hoping that this time they'll finally unlock the missing piece.
As if the answer is more information. 😗
What I've come to realize is this:
For most people, the problem isn't a lack of knowledge.
It's a lack of integration.
The information keeps piling up, but it never has the chance to become part of the body.
Not because you don't want to put in the work.
Not because you’re lazy.
But because you’re trying to do it… alone.
and I know… it’s not fun at all.
There's no structure once the class is over.
No one to guide the practice.
No one to answer the questions that arise along the way.
No community to return to.
No one to share with…
This is why I say to everyone who takes my classes, if you need feedback, support, got questions I’M HERE FOR YOU, but that alone doesn’t help so much and I think the reason is because I’m only 1 person and..
Humans thrive in circles, in community.
Because in a community we can uplift each other, we can inspire each other, motivate each other.
That realization has been sitting with me for a long time.
Then, a few days ago, I asked my WhatsApp community (click here if you want to be part of it :) what they struggle with the most when it comes to their movement practice.
Almost every answer came back to the same thing:
Consistency.
Not motivation.
Not lack of knowledge or time.
Consistency.
And once again, I’m amazed by the timing of the Universe because I have been working on something that is basically solving this problem 🥹
And I’m SO EXCITED! I’m excited because as a mentor and an artist my drive is to deliver and find new ways to help my community.
What I’ve been working on is….
* drum roll *
🥁🥁🥁
A Tracing Mentorship.
yep. ONLY TRACING.
TRACING ONLY.
One that gives you the structure, the support, and the space AND THE TIME to actually integrate what you're learning and stay with it over time.
I'll be sharing more very soon.
I have a feeling this is going to be something really special. ❤️🔥
Stay tuned.
Waves of love,
Alex
