Hey dancers and dance enthusiasts! Welcome back to another exciting episode of DancerAF, hosted by Vaughan Liddicoat. Today, we're diving deep into a topic that challenges the age-old saying: "Practice makes perfect."

Whether you're a seasoned dancer looking to refine your technique or a beginner eager to grasp the fundamentals, this episode is packed with invaluable wisdom that will revolutionize the way you think about practice and its role in your journey as a dancer.
