We have partnered with Melissa McDaniel from Turning Pointe Dance Creation to continue the conversation, dive deeper into each topic with guest experts each week.

The topics in the StEPS course are all deep and broad...but SO IMPORTANT for any student athlete, educator, or parent to learn about how to empower their athlete and foster careers, but most importantly, create lifelong healthy habits for minds, bodies, & souls. To take it ONE STEP FURTHER than our education course, we have partnered with Melissa McDaniel from Turning Pointe Dance Creation to continue the conversation, dive deeper into each topic with guest experts each week.

We make safe and fun conversation around the burning questions we all have. Each week we walk through a question from our StEPS pillars with guests expertise to guide us through every important topic from daily training, nutrition, and what is important to your studio daily and yearly, to difficult or hot button topics in an effort to understand, appreciate perspective, or grow and evolve your everyday practices and actions.

This is a video podcast for performance athletes, parents, coaches and educators about the issues we face day to day! It is interactive so you can join us live and participate and ask questions! OR catch it on your earbuds on your carpool or daily walk on your own time. Making time for this free education resource will be pivotal to help you, your performance athlete do MORE of what you love...longer & stronger!

We curated this course from the generous donations of experts in the fields of racism, sexual abuse prevention, dance medicine and science, gender equity, dance integration, and nutrition. This is a broad starter course to creating a safe space for your studio and is great information for parents too! In each chapter there are also resources for you to continue to learn more and continue your journey into each topic! Apolla hosts this course so it is FREE and accessible to ALL!
