Remember those little finger traps from childhood?
The more you pulled, the tighter they squeezed. The trick was to lean in, relax, and suddenlyāfreedom.
Life works the same way.
Anxiety. Money pressure. Even dance plateaus.
Iāve learned the more I thrash against the problem, the more stuck I feel. But when I soften and lean in, I usually find the way out quicker.
⨠Practice This
Next time you feel stuckāwhether itās training, choreography, or lifeāpause.
Breathe.
Instead of pulling away, lean into the discomfort just a little.
Notice how it shifts.
Inside Core, this is the kind of mindset work we tie directly into movementābecause training the mind is as important as training the body.
