November 22 | 2:00–3:00 PM
Behind every dancer is a mom who cheers, encourages, sacrifices, problem-solves, and believes in them every step of the way.
At MN Dance Athletics, we know that the dance journey is about more than what happens in the studio or on the competition floor. From navigating middle school and high school to supporting big dreams of dancing in college, being a dance mom comes with its own set of challenges, emotions, and opportunities for growth.
We're excited to create an hour just for YOU!
Join us for Behind the Dancer, a special experience led by Lisa Hardesty, PhD, ABPP, PCC. As a board-certified Clinical Health Psychologist, executive coach, speaker, and facilitator with more than 30 years of experience, Lisa brings a wealth of knowledge in performance, resilience, emotional intelligence, and personal growth.
But Lisa also brings something else to the conversation: she's a dance mom herself! Her daughter, Payton Hardesty, was an instructor at MNDA's inaugural INSPIRE event this past May, served as captain of the University of Minnesota Duluth Dance Team, and is now pursuing her master's degree in Organizational Development. Lisa understands firsthand the unique experience of supporting a dancer through all the stages of their journey.
Whether you're looking for new perspectives, ways to navigate the pressures of the dance world, tools to strengthen your own resilience, or simply an opportunity to connect with other moms who understand, this hour is for you.
You spend so much time investing in your dancer. Take an hour to invest in yourself, too.
Date: November 22
Time: 2:00–3:00 PM
Audience: Dance moms and parents
Registration: Available as a standalone experience. Your dancer does not need to attend the November 22nd dancer workshop for you to participate!
Cost: $30
Location: Overland Elementary School
We can't wait to bring our moms together for an experience that reminds us that supporting our dancers starts with supporting ourselves, too. 💙
