Before diving into yet another fascinating season of dance changemakers, we first have some bonus episodes to wet your appetite! Season 3 is primarily about multi-faceted artists who wear many hats and are brilliant at them all. When the opportunity to host an inaugural LIVE book review presented itself, I duly accepted the challenge to tell choreographer, educator and author, Janaea Rose Lyn.

Janaea's focus is on creating and facilitating work that reflects timeless human experience through timely personal stories. Her book, Choreographing Your Dance Career (CYDC), is a handbook and resource for dancers and educators in any style or career stage. As an advocate, she is committed to strengthening dance communities by fostering dialogue, providing choreographic and career feedback, connecting artists, and encouraging the creative exchange of ideas and opportunities.

If The Background Dancer is the Yellow Pages of dance, CYDC is essentially your daily workbook to level up! Welcome to Bonus Episode 1 of Season 3, Choreographing Your Dance Career .
