Taylor Cocco: Building confidence and female empowerment in and outside of the dance studio.
“I want each kid to leave the workshops feelings invincible and amazing”
In this episode we speak Boston-based dance and fitness instructor, Taylor Cocco. We discuss the importance of creating a safe space within the classroom, helping students to navigate the pressures and aesthetic norms within dance, exercising for strength instead of appearance goals, and encouraging dancers to trust their bodies. Taylor also shares with us a new female empowerment workshop she has created, “U-CAN.”
