Episode 77: Attention and Focus

DanceWell Podcast

Effective attention and focus are known components of a successful artistic performance. As audience members, we know how powerful it can be to see a dancer who is supremely focused in the present moment. And as dancers, we know that an inability to maintain our attention on the task at hand can result in poor performance or even yield disastrous outcomes. In Episode 77: Attention and Focus, Clare Guss-West explains more about this important topic. She shares a bit of the existing research on attentional focus and explains the many ways in which certain attentional strategies enhance performance as well as offering practical ideas for improving attentional focus.
