I don't think I quite realized how much of a social aspect the dance classes are until we had to stop, and I think, for the younger ones, it was a million times easier, especially for parents as well. But there were kids, and some of the kids that are at every single class, that just lost the love for it.
Imagine running a dance school and suddenly facing a global pandemic. That's exactly what happened to Abbie Lindsay, principal of The A Team Dance School in Lancashire. In this episode of The Recruiter's Recruitment Podcast, Abbie sits down with Lysha Holmes to share her journey of navigating these unprecedented times. Abbie had just taken on a new studio in 2019, and it was the busiest she had ever been. But when Covid-19 hit, everything changed.
She had to quickly adapt to keep her 100+ students engaged and dancing from home. How did she manage it? By embracing video lessons and staying positive, even when the going got tough. Abbie opens up about the challenges of keeping kids motivated and connected without the usual face-to-face interactions. Some students lost their spark, while others stayed committed to their passion for dance.
She also discusses the importance of social interaction in dance classes and how she tackled the difficulties of maintaining that connection during lockdown. The conversation doesn't stop there. Abbie delves into the dynamics of competition and collaboration within the dance industry. While some schools see each other as rivals, others choose to support one another. Her story is a testament to resilience and creativity in the face of adversity.
If you're looking for inspiration on how to keep your passion alive during tough times, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear Abbie's insights on adapting to change and overcoming challenges.
