Unleash Your Summer Dance Motivation

Rediscover Your Dance "Why":

We all have those days when motivation hits rock bottom. During such times, reconnect with your "Why." Reflect on the reasons why you dance and why you set these goals.

Uncover the passion and drive that brought you to Irish Dance. Embrace your "Why" and let it rekindle your inner fire! 

Embrace the Power of Recovery:

Motivation sometimes needs a break too. Recognize that a lack of motivation can be your body and mind's way of telling you to recharge. Recovery is just as crucial as training! Give yourself permission to relax and recover.

Engage in activities like yoga, swimming, peaceful trail walks, meditation, or enjoy some summer reading. You'll return stronger and more motivated than ever!

Remember, Motivation is a Journey:

Fluctuations in motivation are normal, especially in a demanding sport like Irish Dance. Be gentle with yourself during ups and downs.

By implementing these friendly and practical techniques, you'll learn how to create and maintain motivation, keeping the spirit of Irish Dance alive and thriving throughout the summer feis season.

Use Helpful Apps:

Your dance training should also incorporate in ‘mental strength training’ which allows you to get out of your head and into your goals. These techniques aren’t only beneficial for Irish Dance, but also carry over into everyday life and school.
