Award-winning dancer, choreographer and creative director, Dani Vitale, is in the studio for our March 5th episode! She is a Los Angeles-based artist and has not only toured the world as a backup dancer for other top artists, but choreographed and creative directed world tours, awards shows, and music videos. She has also been a voice for the dance community, advocating on the boards of SAG-AFTRA and Dancers Alliance for fair industry wages and for dancers to be respected as athletes. As an Under Armor athlete in 2017, she returned to her hometown dance studio in Cleveland, Ohio, to give it a complete renovation so that it could continue to be a safe, inspiring, and creative place for its students. She spoke on this episode about her best advice for dancers to handle the industry’s challenges, how dancers can find a place where they fit within the dance world, and how instructors can build an inclusive environment in their studios. She shared audition advice, fun backstage memories from tours, and some recent, exciting projects she’s been working on!
