DanceSpeak

69 Cat Cogliandro - Conversations Around Body, Teacher Responsibilities With Youth, Protecting Yourself And The Art

15 Feb 2018

Description

Episode 69 of DanceSpeak with Cat Cogliandro blows the lid off surface talk and goes straight for the soul of what one might go through in this industry. As Cat says: "I was not put on this earth to keep my mouth shut." Here are some of the topics we go through in this episode: - How Cat defines the genre of contemporary dance - Cat's lesser known influences - How Cat takes care of her body - Controversial social media moments - Knowing WHO is teaching young dancers - Body image and body shaming - Why she needs to be aligned with her agency representation - Showing your body vs. objectification - How dancers are conditioned to keep their heads down - Age shaming - Sacrifices she makes to be where she is - What inspires Cat. This episode does have potentially triggering conversations around eating disorders, which we want you to know before choosing to listen (we also make note at times when the conversations 'go there.') Lastly, this episode was made with a lot of love for what we do. I chose to leave many of the more vulnerable moments in hopes that it can ultimately create more space for the conversations that we need to have.
