About learning in belly dance festivals (read captions)

You don’t really learn much at the festivals.
WHAT???😳😳😳😳😳
Yes, and no. Let me explain.
You don’t really learn or acquire new skills during festivals. 👉You only DISCOVER ABOUT those potential skills.
You don’t really upgrade your dance level during festivals. 👉You only SEE THE POTENTIAL for that upgrade.
You don’t really expand your movement vocabulary during festivals. 👉You only RECEIVE NEW MATERIAL.
All the real learning, growth and improvement happens AFTER the festival, and ONLY IF you work hard on the information you’ve received during the event.
Remember‼️‼️‼️: you are coming to dance festivals not to grow the collection of your workshop videos, but to grow your dance skills. And that’s entirely YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. Festivals only provide opportunities.
