Being "good" at dancing is the bare minimum in 2026.
Being reliable, professional, and someone people actually want to be in a room with for 12 hours is what keeps you booked.
Talent gets you in the door; character keeps you in the room.

The "Skeleton Crew" is the most underrated job in dance.
You are literally the blueprint for the world's biggest K-Pop idols.
You're the ghost in the machine making $400-$500 a day to ensure a superstar doesn't look like they have two left feet.

Dancers, stop calling yourself a "starving artist."
Words have power.
Call yourself a "specialized movement consultant" or a "freelance entertainment contractor."
The second you change how you speak about your work, the world changes how they pay for it.

I got so focused on short-form videos (Reels, TikTok, all that) that I forgot I used to love writing. Sharing thoughts even when no one’s watching. Now I’m slowly crawling back to write, on Bluesky of course 😁
Damn… writing just pulled me back to a side of me I forgot existed.

Bad Bunny’s halftime show proved one thing for dancers.
You can hit every count perfectly and still feel empty on stage. What people remember comes from energy, chemistry, and real interaction.
Audiences forget steps.
They never forget how you made them feel.

Dancers are just elite athletes who get paid in 'exposure' and chronic knee pain. If the NFL paid players what dancers get, the Super Bowl wouldn't exist.
