| 6/24/26 | ![]() Riley Weber on Ballet Influencers and Brand Ambassadorships | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk Riley Weber is back on the podcast. Since leaving a corporate dance brand job, Riley has been speaking more openly about how the influencer side of the dance industry actually works. In this episode, we talk about how influencer income works, from per view payouts to brand collabs, and what actually happens behind the scenes of a sponsored post. We also talk about brand ambassadorships for dance students. What it means when a brand sends a 12 year old free leotards in exchange for content, who benefits from that arrangement, and what it can do to a child's sense of self worth when it gets tied to follower counts and engagement. If you have ever wondered whether your dancer should pursue a brand deal, or whether a large following actually helps with getting hired by a company, this episode covers it.

| 6/17/26 | ![]() Francis Veyette: What The Heck Does Potential, Facility and Body Type REALLY Mean? A Rerelease | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk Jenny and I are taking a much needed vacation with our families so we're rereleasing one of our most popular episodes. We sat down with Francis Veyette, former principal dancer with Pennsylvania (now Philadelphia) Ballet, Co-Founder of the Veyette Virtual Ballet School and Rehearsal Director & Outreach Manager for Indianapolis Ballet. In this episode, Fran breaks down loaded terms like potential, facility, and body type, offering a practical understanding of what they mean. He also shares insights into the qualities dancers need to thrive in the ballet world. For anyone who has ever scratched their head when they heard people refer to potential or facility, this interview is a must-listen! You can learn more about Fran on his website.

| 6/10/26 | ![]() From the Royal Ballet to K-Ballet Academy: Kenta Kura on Training Japan's Next Generation | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk If you've been paying attention, you've noticed: Japanese dancers are everywhere. Winning competitions, yes, but also filling the upper ranks of major ballet companies around the world. We've been wondering for a while now what is actually going on over there. Turns out, Kenta Kura has some answers. Kura spent nearly three decades inside the Royal Ballet, first as a soloist with the Royal Ballet, then as the first Japanese permanent teacher at the Royal Ballet School. In 2023, he came home to Japan with a clear mission: bring that world-class methodology to K-Ballet Academy, and change the equation for Japanese dancers who have long had to leave the country to access professional-level training. In this conversation, we dig into how ballet training is structured in Japan from the ground up, what the Kumakawa Method is and why it matters, and how K-Ballet Academy's Pre-Professional Course functions as a direct pipeline into K-Ballet Tokyo. We also explore what it takes for Japanese dancers to build careers abroad, the mental and emotional preparation that journey requires, and what it was like for Kura to be the only boy in his ballet school in a small Hokkaido village, until he stepped onto that international stage and felt, for the first time, like he truly belonged. His advice for young dancers is as simple as it is hard: allow yourself to make mistakes. Stay hungry. Stay curious. And believe in your own potential more than anyone else does.

| 6/3/26 | ![]() Your Ballet Dancer Wants to Go to College. Now What? | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk Your dancer has decided to pursue the college path. But which program is the right fit? What's the real difference between a BFA and a BA? What does a video pre-screen actually need to accomplish? And when tuition can tip into six figures, how do families make smart financial decisions? Francisco Gella and Julie Friedrich of Francisco Gella Dance Works are back for Part 2, and they get specific. We cover BFA vs. BA, which programs they think are doing strong work right now, how to approach video pre-screens, the three types of financial aid available to dancers, and what happens if your dancer gets a company offer after already committing to a school. The 2026 workshop schedule will be announced by August 1. To be notified when registration opens, email collegeprep@franciscogelladance.com.

| 5/27/26 | ![]() What Does "Elite Ballet Training" Actually Mean for College Admissions? | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk Does your dancer need elite training to have a shot at a top college? But what does elite actually mean? Is it competition wins? A company-affiliated school? The right summer intensives? And does the answer look the same whether your dancer is pursuing a BFA or a non-dance degree? College and career specialists Francisco Gella and Julie Friedrich of Francisco Gella Dance Works have guided hundreds of dancers down both routes. This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. In Part 1, we dig into the real differences between the BFA route and the academic route. We talk about why your school's college counselor may not understand this world and what "Olympic level" actually means when elite universities evaluate a dancer's background. We also look at why competition results carry less weight in academic admissions than many families expect, and a distinction that confuses a lot of families: the difference between a dance portfolio and a dance supplement, and what each one is actually for. The 2026 workshop schedule will be announced on or before August 1, 2026. If you are interested in receiving an announcement when registration for the Fall Virtual Workshops opens, please email collegeprep@franciscogelladance.com.

| 5/20/26 | ![]() Making the Most of Ballet Summer Intensives: A Parent's Guide | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk In this host-only episode, we draw on our combined years of navigating ballet summer intensives to break down how to make the most of every program -- for your dancer and for you. We talk through what to do before your dancer leaves, how to handle drop-off day, and what to expect once they're there. We also get into the stuff nobody warns you about: what a scholarship really signals, how to handle the tap-on-the-shoulder conversation about year-round enrollment, navigating roommate issues, and what to do if your kid gets in trouble -- and yes, we are speaking from experience on that last one.

We dig into the structure of Princeton Ballet School from youngest students through the trainee program, how the school and company function as a single organization, and what actionable feedback actually looks like in practice. We also get into ARB2, the tricky math of a large trainee cohort and a tight job market, and a genuinely moving conversation about hunger, artistry, and what it means to inspire an audience.

| 2/26/26 | ![]() #NoThirds: Bullying in Ballet: The Lobby, the Queen Bee & You | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk In the final episode of our four-part bullying series, we're joined again by Kelsey Fyffe, a therapist who works with pre-professional dancers, and Suzette Takei, a veteran academic school administrator and educator, as we get into the messy stuff. Lobby politics, ballet parents behaving badly, peer conflict between students, nepotism at the dance studio, and yes, that one kid who thinks the entire barre belongs to her. We also tackle some bigger questions: how do you know when a ballet training environment has turned toxic? What do you do when your dancer is being bullied by a classmate, a teacher's pet, or even another parent? And what does any of this have to do with your own stress and mental health? The conversation we didn't expect to have and couldn't stop having was about you, the ballet parent, and the stress that quietly leaks onto everyone around you without you even realizing it. If you're new here, start with Parts 1 through 3 first as this series builds on itself.

| 2/25/26 | ![]() Elena Kunikova on Teaching, Training, and the Art of Ballet | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk What does it actually feel like to train at the Vaganova Academy, the school that produced some of the greatest dancers in history, and then go on to perform at one of Russia's most storied companies? Elena Kunikova has lived that story, and she's generous enough to share it. In this episode, we talk about what serious Vaganova method training actually looks like from the inside, why character dance matters more than most ballet training programs realize, and how the pandemic turned her into one of the most sought-after online ballet coaches working today. We also get into the questions ballet parents of pre-professional dancers tend to lose sleep over: when to start thinking about a professional path, whether early specialization in one style helps or hurts, and what it actually means to teach a student how to work. Elena has been in ballet for, as she puts it, about 300 years. She has the stories to prove it. Interested in working with Elena? Learn more here.

| 2/19/26 | ![]() #NoThirds: Bullying in Ballet: Addressing Weight Comments and Abusive Language in Ballet Training | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk In part three of our bullying series, we tackle some of the toughest conversations ballet parents face: what to do when teachers make harmful comments about weight, body image, or use abusive language in class. Psychotherapist Kelsey Fyffe and educator Suzette Takei give parents the exact roadmap for addressing these issues at ballet schools and pre-professional programs. Kelsey, who specializes in eating disorders and works with Houston Ballet Academy, explains why pre-professional students should never be put on diets, what questions to ask about a studio's approach to body image, and how to tell the difference between giving corrections and promoting disordered eating. She shares specific language for approaching ballet teachers and administrators, starting with curiosity instead of accusations. We dig into the real fears ballet parents have about speaking up. Will your kid get blackballed from summer intensives or trainee programs? How do you know when to stay and when to run? Suzette and Kelsey walk through scenarios and discuss cultural and generational differences that can complicate conversations with non-native English speaking faculty. The episode covers handling abusive language from ballet instructors, including when teachers single out students in class. We talk about how bystander parents can step in even when it's not their kid being targeted, how to teach young dancers to set boundaries around body comments, and why building supportive lobby culture matters. Suzette and Kelsey also address why anxious, perfectionistic ballet students struggle to speak up and how therapy can help dancers build their mental toolkit before problems escalate. If you've ever felt paralyzed about confronting a problem at your ballet studio or pre-professional program, this episode gives you the questions to ask and the confidence to advocate for your child's physical and mental health.

| 2/18/26 | ![]() How Ballet Austin Built a Post-Grad Program That Actually Works | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk We sit down with Michelle Martin, Associate Artistic Director of Ballet Austin, for a refreshingly honest conversation about their complete training pipeline: the tuition-free Butler Fellowship program, Ballet Austin TWO, and the path into the main company. Michelle doesn't sugarcoat anything. She talks about why Ballet Austin kept their academy as an after-school program instead of going the full-time route, how the rise of post-grad programs has changed the industry, and what families need to know when they're researching trainee programs. Spoiler: not all programs are created equal, and some are designed more as revenue drivers than genuine training opportunities. This interview gets into the practical stuff parents want to know. Do dancers really need full-time day programs in high school? What's the actual difference between Butler Fellows (focused on training) and Ballet Austin TWO (focused on performance)? How many dancers move up through each level, and where do they go if they don't? Michelle shares the numbers and the reality behind them. We also talk about things you don't usually hear artistic directors discuss openly: why they do phone interviews before auditions, what they're actually looking for when they cast, how to be a good understudy, and why normalizing different definitions of success matters. Plus, Michelle shares what Ballet Austin learned from a major Wallace Foundation grant about building audiences for contemporary work. Interested in auditioning for Ballet Austin?

| 2/11/26 | ![]() Tights Under: Going Pro with LeeAnaca Moore and Natalie Bowman | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk LeeAnaca "Lee" Moore (Pacific Northwest Ballet) and Natalie Bowman (St. Louis Ballet) are the duo behind Tights Under, the popular social media account showcasing the realities of pre-professional and professional ballet life. In this episode, Lee and Natalie get candid about their journeys from training to landing their first professional contracts. They discuss the pivotal moments that shaped their careers, including their transformative (and humbling) experiences at PNB's Professional Division program — where pointe shoes at the barre at 8:30 AM became the new normal. The conversation covers the biggest adjustments from student to professional life, from navigating company class dynamics to finally having a "place" instead of constantly fighting for your spot. They're refreshingly honest about early career finances, the reality of needing parental support, and what it takes to make a dancer's salary work. Lee and Natalie also share the origin story of Tights Under — how boredom backstage during Swan Lake sparked what became a brand — and what it takes to maintain their content while dancing full-time. They offer practical advice for aspiring dancers interested in building their own social media presence, emphasizing authenticity over perfection. From memorable mentorship advice like "dance like you smell good" to their ballet Mount Rushmores, this conversation offers an honest look at what it really takes to go pro.

| 2/4/26 | ![]() Lynne Charles on English National Ballet School's GAP Programme | Listen to Ballet Help Desk ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BalletHelpDesk Lynne Charles, Artistic Director of English National Ballet School, discusses the school's new Graduate Artist Programme (GAP), a postgraduate program that combines performing with English National Ballet and continued education. Unlike traditional programs where students serve as "free labor," GAP dancers perform with the company while continuing ballet, repertoire, strength training, and audition prep. Lynne shares how ENBS prepares students for professional life, from teaching them to research companies and understand the difference between repertory and choreographer companies, to building sustainable careers through community over competition. She also discusses creating the 4 Pointe method, a holistic approach to pointe work that's reduced injuries by 48% at BYU, and her stance against early competition culture and starting pointe before age 12. Lynne offers refreshingly direct advice on honest teaching, helping dancers showcase their strengths in auditions, and finding companies where they'll thrive. Plus: the school's robust health and wellbeing protocols, the "no phones in the studio" policy, why repertoire class builds community better than variations class, and why being in the corps de ballet is a rite of passage, not a punishment.
