Pouring from an Empty Cup:
The Silent Struggle of Dance Directors
The Dance Floor Podcast,I’m your host Anna Harsh—and today’s episode is a solo one.It’s just you and me. And we’re going to talk about something a lot of dance directors or studio owners feel… but rarely say out loud.
It’s that moment when you realize:
“I’m doing too much… and it’s costing me.”
Whether you lead a company, run a studio, or direct a touringensemble—there’s often an invisible load we carry. The planning, the logistics, the fundraising, the mentoring, the emotional support, the late-night emails, the "one more thing" after rehearsal...
And let’s be honest—sometimes we pour more into our dancers than wepour into ourselves.
