A message on authentically bringing yourself to your movement…
The dancers who move people aren’t always the ones doing the most. They’re the ones being the most themselves.
Freestyling isn’t about having the craziest moves. It’s about having the courage to honest and authentic.
To take risks.
To get uncomfortable.
To stop hiding behind choreography and actually express what the music makes YOU feel.
That’s a muscle—and if you’re not training it, you’re avoiding it.
Practice your freestyle.
Practice your freedom.
Practice trusting yourself.
Because at the end of the day…people don’t connect to perfection. They connect to truth. 💎
And if you’ve never been in a room that actually pushes you to tap into that…that’s exactly what we train inside BTB.
Save this—and give yourself permission to be seen.

Unpopular truths about succeeding as a creative entrepreneur that nobody really talks about 🗣️
Save this and send it to somebody who needs the reminder. 🤍
📌 No one is coming to save you. You have to create your own momentum.
📌 Talent might get you in the room. Character, professionalism, and consistency are what keep you there.
📌 You are not just a creative. You are a business. If you don’t treat it like one, it won’t pay you like one.
📌 Discipline will take you further than motivation ever will. Motivation fades. Standards don’t.
📌 You are not stuck. Most people just haven’t changed their strategy, habits, or environment yet.
📌 If you are the most ambitious person in every room you’re in, it may be time to find bigger rooms.
📌 Playing it safe might protect your comfort, but it can also limit your growth.
📌 Success will require you to outgrow versions of yourself you once thought were enough.
Which one hit you the hardest?

Let me tell you what actually helps you win while auditioning. 🗣️
After years of being on both sides of the room, I can tell you it is not always the most technically gifted dancer who books the job. Here is what actually separates the ones who get called back 👇🏽
💎 Walk in like you already belong there. The energy you bring through that door sets the tone before you learn a single step. Confidence is not arrogance. It is preparation wearing its best outfit.
💎 Be coachable in the room. When a choreographer gives a correction, take it with grace and apply it immediately. That tells me more about you than any eight count ever will.
💎 Intention is always better than big. I would rather see you hit every step with purpose than blow through the combo trying to do the most. Precision communicates seasoned. Chaos does not.
💎 Your presence matters as much as your technique. Are you performing or are you just executing steps? There is a big difference. The camera and the choreographer can both tell.
💎 Leave everything on that floor. You may not book every job but make sure they remember you. Give them something to talk about after you walk out the door. 🤏🏽
If you are ready to train in rooms that actually prepare you for auditions, I want to see you at the BTB Intensive this month.. LA, NYC and London, you’re up!

Surround yourself with people who think bigger than you do. 🧠
Because if you’re the most driven person in the room… you’re in the wrong room.
The room you’re in will either expand your vision or quietly keep you playing small.
When you’re around people who are hungry, disciplined, and already moving at a high level, you don’t have a choice but to rise.
That’s how you grow.
That’s how you get better.
That’s how you move different.
That’s what BTB is. Not just training—but a room that challenges you, stretches you, and shows you what’s actually possible.
If you’ve been needing a shift… this is it. 📍 LA: May 15–17 📍 NYC: May 22–24 📍 London: May 27–29

Every dancer has a moment that changes everything. 💎

For 3 days, you’ll step into: – real performance training – a live mock audition – direct feedback from industry professionals – strategy sessions to clarify your goals and build a brand that actually gets you in the room

Through The Lens: Alumni Edition 🎥
@misssmicah is proof that what you build inside the BTB room goes far beyond just dance. 🤍
We are back with another spotlight in our alumni series where our BTB family shares the real lessons, the real growth, and the real life that happens after their season of the camp. No fluff, just real people and their stories.
Micah took everything she learned inside BTB SZN 4, the discipline, the mindset, the standard of excellence, and carried it straight into building a life and career that goes far beyond the dance floor. That is exactly what this program is about. We are not just training dancers. We are developing people.
So proud of you Micah. Keep going. The best is still ahead. 💐
Drop some love in the comments for her! 👇🏽

Spring cleaning time! Save this because your career deserves a reset too.🌸🧹
Some habits are quietly holding you back and it is time to let them go.
📌 Stop shrinking in the room. Take up the space you deserve and move with confidence because the people doing the hiring notice everything.
📌 Stop letting your page collect dust. Your page is your resume and right now it might not be telling the right story.
📌 Stop avoiding feedback. The dancers who grow the fastest are the ones who welcome correction.
📌 Stop undercharging and overdelivering. Know your value and stand on business about it.
📌 Stop isolating your growth. Find a mentor, a community, or a room that pushes you further than you can push yourself.
That last one? That is exactly what BTB was built for.

BTB ALUMNI AT COACHELLA!!! 🌵🎉
Nothing fills my heart more than watching BTB alumni step onto stages they prayed for. This is exactly why BTB camp exists.
@_ari.g from SZN 2 made history in the desert dancing for the first Latin headliner at Coachella, the one and only @karolg . And @alexandraalemanyy SZN 4 and @alex_kadii SZN 5 brought everything they had performing for @sexyyred
Three BTB alumni. Two iconic weekends. All of them shining exactly where they are supposed to be.🤍
This is what happens when hard work meets opportunity. So proud of each of you. Drop some flowers in the comments for them! 💐

Thinking about moving to LA? Hear this first. 🌴✨
BTB Alumni @itsameliacollins broke down exactly what she wishes she knew before making the move and these gems are for EVERYBODY.
💎 Know your value and stand on it. LA will test you. Stay grounded before the city tries to tell you who to be.
💎 Define what success looks like for YOU. Not everyone else. Write it down and work toward that version every day.
💎 Be intentional with your time. How you structure your life here will make or break your career. Opportunity and distraction live on the same block.
The dream is valid. Now make sure you are prepared for it.
Drop a “🙌🏽” in the comments if you caught the gems. 👇🏽
