  • Summary

  • In this episode, Elizabeth Sullivan, a mentor to pre-professional dancers, discusses the concept of mental fitness and why it’s essential for ballet parents. We explore the challenges of guiding young dancers through an increasingly complex ballet landscape—where training opportunities are vast, but professional roles remain limited. Elizabeth offers insights into setting realistic expectations for audition season, from summer intensives to professional opportunities, and sheds light on the unique standards of “potential” and “facility” in ballet versus other sports. She also explains how mental flexibility can support a dancer’s growth, while discussing the evolving role of parents as their dancers progress toward potential careers. Don’t miss this deep dive into practical advice and supportive strategies for navigating the ballet world with clarity and resilience.
