How did Robin Snyder transition from dancer to educator?
When I was in high school and I realized that I didn't really have what it takes to spend all day in a dance studio, I didn't want that life. And I thought, well, what else is there? And I thought, it has to be dance. Maybe I'm going to be a teacher, but it has to be dance. Maybe I'm going to be a business owner, but it has to be dance. How do you find stars? How do you go? This person just gets it. Wow. So my name is Rudy Moore, host of Living the Red Life podcast, and I'm here to change the way you see your life in your earpiece every single week. If you're ready to start living the red life, ditch the blue pill, take the red pill, join me in Wonderland and change your life. Welcome to another episode of the Living Your Legacy podcast, the Red Life edition.
Joining me today is something that I hold dear to my heart is dance. I wish I was a dancer. I'm a music video director. But maybe Miss Robbins herself, a legacy maker, can give me a hand. Miss Robbins, how are you? Welcome to the show. I am great. How are you? Thank you so much for having me. Oh, I am ecstatic to have you on our show, especially for Red Life. You literally just finished filming your episode for Legacy Makers. How do you feel? My biggest takeaway is I think I'm a better interviewer than I am an interviewee. Oh, right on. Why would you say that? Sitting in that chair and just talking into the camera and not having any human interaction and feedback, that's a challenge. And it's by design. We don't say any of those fun secrets, unless you listen to this podcast now.
Well, people must... I will have a new respect moving forward for people who can do that. That was a challenge for me. I am a podcast host, and I feel very comfortable being in the seat of the... I'm a hostess. Sure. I'm trying to make my guest feel comfortable. I thrive on eye contact and, you know, nodding of the head and, you know, encouragement and that type of thing. And I'll tell you, that was a challenge. And if your editing team can make something lovely of that, I will be singing your praises from here to high heaven. Well, Harry H is literally our lead editor. He wears that name proudly. He's quite the wizard. Aren't you, Harry? I hope so, Harry. Let me know if I can write you a little extra check.
Yeah. And just for the ASMR, this man's got a beautiful voice, too. Oh, really? Oh, yeah, yeah. Wink, wink.
What role does tradition play in dance education?
Or I know about age. All about you, my love. I mean it by when I say I hold dance near my heart. Like when I shoot video and I direct, I think as a dancer. Really? Talk about the disciplines of dance. And it's not just about rolling out of bed and counting to four and 16. It's far beyond that, isn't it? It is. And I think that it all starts with ceremony and tradition. Oh, yeah. I... My heart of hearts is with classical ballet. That was the training that was most meaningful for me. And what I loved about it was that ceremony and that tradition. You know, when I teach ballet, I always say if my students learn nothing, they will learn how to stand up straight. And to curtsy. Yep. They will learn to listen and they will learn the etiquette of a traditional classical ballet class.
And I think especially in today's culture, that's something that our children can really benefit from. Absolutely. There's such a casualness about our life. Yeah. In these days, isn't there? Like people don't dress up to go to restaurants anymore. And there's something about that ceremony of ballet where, you know, you are regal and you are proper and there are manners and there are traditions. That, to me, is something that our children can really benefit from. Right on. And if they don't go on to pursue professional careers in ballet, that's okay. I would hope that they would carry with them some of that, you know, honor for that old tradition. Oh, the honor, the cachet, the being trained. Like Lauren, which happened to be your host, General Lauren, Lauren's one of my apprentices, and she picked it up far quickly.
Faster because she's far more disciplined and comes as a dancer. Grabbed the camera, started filming, started shooting.
