Episode #21 // Season:2025

Luba sits down with a fellow dancer she’s crossed paths with in Thailand, Barcelona, and Poland a familiar face in the international Bachata scene who, like her, had felt the shift at an international festival.
The conversation was sparked by two moments that hit the internet this month:
• Luba’s recent post about feeling unwelcome in her local dance community, a post that unexpectedly went viral, with thousands of dancers resonating with her experience.
• Manuels reflective post about feeling disconnected at a major European festival, despite being surrounded by music, dancers, and undeniable talent.
Together, they ask the question everyone has been whispering but few have been willing to say out loud:
Is the dance community losing its purpose, its heart, and the connection that made so many of us fall in love with it in the first place?
This episode dives into:
• The difference between dancing for community vs. dancing for content
• Why so many dancers feel unseen, unwelcome, or “out of place” even in rooms full of people
• The emotional toll of feeling disconnected from something that once felt like home
Raw, honest, and long overdue, this episode is for dancers everywhere who’ve ever questioned their place in the room and for anyone who still believes the dance floor should be the one place you never have to fight for belonging.
