Description

Have you ever wondered why you stop performing as well when people start watching you dance? There are reasons for this that may surprise you, so in this video, I wanted to not only share the psychological reasons why you might be holding back or cracking under pressure but also WHAT you can start to do to perform your best in front of an audience. Enjoy!
