The Magic & Influence of Dance | Joseph Corella

The powers of music and movement have inspired and empowered us since the earliest days of humanity and so I have wanted to explore more of this side of the arts for a while now and took the opportunity of my 50th birthday celebration to share with you a fun and light-hearted episode of Speaking Influence with some powerful thoughts.

My guest is dancer and dance teacher Joseph Corella. Joseph made a big professional pivot during the pandemic to set up virtual dance classes but not any old dance classes, he wanted to make something fun for him and other adults to safely explore creativity, get or stay healthy and have fun dancing to show tunes. He started up 567Broadway.com so that anyone could start to feel like a Broadway star in the comfort of their own home. You can try out a live or downloaded online class with Joseph and find out for yourself how much fun it is.

In this episode:

  • Dance as a means of channelling expression and emotion
  • The power of dance to create presence
  • Personal state management with dance and music
  • The power of Babs
  • How many times has Joseph watched Beaches with Bette Midler?
  • The influence & inspiration of Rita Moreno (West Side Story)

and more besides.

This was a fun conversation and a lighter take on influence and persuasion. I hope you will enjoy it and check out some more recent episodes.
