Well....What an incredible few days it was at our 2021 DTW Live Conference & Expo! It was so amazing to be back all together, doing what we love most. We are just so overjoyed and honored you spent this time with us. Just as much as we all love teaching, we also value learning and growing from you, our peers. We are all so inspired to use all this wonderful knowledge and gear up for the new season ahead. The energy was truly electric and infectious! Everyone from the faculty to the attendees to our wonderful staff and Expo vendors have been buzzing with enthusiasm, positivity and readiness after the year we’ve just endured and our hearts are full.  It's really been so exciting to share with everyone.... and this conference really does keep getting better year after year! We thank you so much. We couldn’t ask for a more perfect event.

Now that you’re back and have had some time to decompress and reflect, we ask you, what are you going to do with all this new-found knowledge and arsenal of ideas? 

How were you inspired most at the conference?

How do you feel you’ll inspire your students?

How will you analyze and assimilate content into your own lessons, for your own students? How will you make it your own?

What was your big takeaway?

How do you feel as a teacher?

A studio owner? A dancer? An artist? A human being? What were experiences that made the most impact for you or sparked an “ah-ha” moment? Are there things you’d love to see at next year’s conference? We’d love to hear from you!

We hope you all maintain this infectious, open energy and thirst for knowledge you came with and can’t wait to hear about the amazing things you do this season! We have no doubt, every single one of you will have an incredible successful and exciting year. Thank you for inspiring us and for joining us for another amazing conference! We’ll see you next year!

Good luck to everyone this 2021-2022 season and we cannot wait to see you in the summer of 2022!

See you in the dance studio,

Love,

Jess & The DTW Family
