Team Bonding Series Part 1 Summary: Did you know there are two types of team bonding? I know many coaches believe that if dancers spend time together, both in and out of practice, they will bond. However, if you're not strategic about this, your team bonding activities will stay very surface level. Unless you encourage your dancers to learn to truly trust each other, they won't be able to get in the trenches and work together when it matters most later in the season. So, this episode kicks off part one of a three-part series on team bonding! In this first episode, I’ll be talking about what team bonding really is, team bonding benefits, and I’ll discuss how to build that strong social culture for your dancers. I’ll also clarify the two different types of team bonding (social cohesion and task cohesion) so that you can ensure you’re focusing on both as we head into the start of our new seasons. If you’d like more specifics on exactly the kinds of games you can play, especially around task cohesion, I have a free download that’ll help with that. I know many of us are always looking for new and different ideas, so this download has 15 different team bonding games you can use with your dancers. Go to www.chelseapierotti.com/108 to get it!
