We are here at eTail Palm Springs and seeing and hearing the latest and greatest in e-commerce and retail. Question: Do you need to choose between AI and human recommendations as a customer? Why not have both? After all, don’t each have their strengths? AI in the retail experience is all the rage these days, but today I’m talking with someone from a brand that has been incorporating AI-personalized experiences and shopping combined with expert human recommendations for over 14 years, and continues to innovate today. Today we’re going to talk about how AI-based personalization plus human creativity and input makes an amazing customer experience at Stitch Fix. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Noah Zamansky, Vice President of Product and Client Experience at Stitch Fix. About Noah Zamansky Noah Zamansky serves as the Vice President of Product and Client Experience at Stitch Fix, where he leads cross-functional teams spanning Product, Design, Engineering, Algorithms, and Platform Development.

This is the podcast for us dance teachers balancing our teaching job with other jobs, commitments, and just life in general! We don't need to know how to run the whole studio, work with students 20+ hours a week, or win big at competitions; we just want practical advice and real conversations about how to be the best dance teachers we can be with the little time we have with our students. Join Maia on the casual dance teacher's podcast and in the casual dance teacher's network on Facebook.

Crafting Creative Solos with Jason Pickett 34:13

for 9 dager siden34:13

34:13

Dancer, educator, choreographer (and more) Jason Pickett, who you may better know as @heyitspickett on social media, is here to talk us through his process for creating innovative and meaningful solos for dance students. I personally find solos so challenging to choreograph because I can't lean on the use of different formations and/or layering of bodies doing different movements, so I was delighted at the opportunity to talk to a true pro on the topic - and I may have been personally attacked along the way, but it was SO SO worth it! 😅 Learn More About "No Starving Artists" Here Theme Music by GBMystical! www.gbmystical.com Recorded Via Squadcast Join the Casual Dance Teacher's Network on Facebook Here Follow our Instagram account Here Please Leave Us a Review on Apple/Spotify! <3…

Fostering a Healthy Dance Business with Alison Foster Jones 36:34

for 16 dager siden36:34

36:34

Today I'm breaking my own "we don't need business advice; we're casual dance teachers" rule by having dance studio owner and business coach Alison Foster-Jones on the show to share her story and tips on growing a studio from 5 students in a rec. room to hundreds of students across multiple studio locations! Alison has such a great message of leveraging passion and positivity for business success that can be applied to any business venture, from owning a studio, to negotiating freelance contracts, even to maintaining control and structure in the classroom as a teacher; so while one of the primary focuses of our conversation today is on building a successful dance business, there's really something for everyone in this one!

Dance Photography 101 with Ian Howe 28:17

for 30 dager siden28:17

28:17

Ian Howe is Back! And today we're talking dance photography! The burning question on my mind - what made the man with 500 jobs decide to start a dance photography business on top of all that? Then we get into some more practical questions like: What are the basics needed to do your own dance photography? How to pose dancers quickly and efficiently for recital photos without them all looking the same? What factors should we look for in lighting, posing, and editing when hiring a dance photographer? All this, accompanied by the soothing sound of Ian's Australian bird friends who crashed our recording session - what more could you ask for?! :) Theme Music by GBMystical! www.gbmystical.com Recorded Via Squadcast Join the Casual Dance Teacher's Network on Facebook Here Follow our Instagram account Here Please Leave Us a Review on Apple/Spotify! <3…

I know I can't be the only teacher that just dreads that awkward transition time when you're dismissing one class and the next is waiting to begin!

Well, I might not have all the answers, but I certainly have a few activities and ideas that have helped me fend off the madness of class transition time over the past few years, so I'm sharing them with you today!

Building on Technique While Teaching Choreography 16:52

for 7 weeks siden16:52

16:52

It's that time of year...the pressure's on to teach recital choreography, and so often that means "sacrificing" the class time previously spent on technique and conditioning. Naturally, we have to continue working technique and conditioning in order for the choreography to look its best at recital time...sometimes, that can mean running the choreography over and over again. But other times, additional measures are required to get your dancers performance-ready, and it can be easy to forget those when we feel the "choreography crunch!" Here are a few of the ways that I continue to incorporate technique practice, core concept awareness, conditioning, and general performance preparedness into my lessons throughout the second half of the dance season while setting choreography on my students.

Designing a Genuinely Inclusive Dance Program with Veronica Vasquez Garcia 29:02

for 9 weeks siden29:02

29:02

Veronica Vasquez Garcia is the creator of Moves Made 4 Me, a developmental movement program that combines life skills with dance, as well as the founder of Elevate Collective Solutions, a consulting business that helps organizations implement inclusive practices, and JMM Dance Co, a nonprofit dedicated to raising mental health awareness through SEL programs. While we couldn't possibly cover the vast breadth of her work in this field, I was thrilled to spend some time picking Veronica's brain about how she developed her curriculum program specifically for individuals with disabilities, and how anyone in the field of dance education can be more inclusive to these students, not necessarily by allowing them to join their pre-existing classes, but by implementing programs that will genuinely serve them. Get more information on the Moves Made 4 Me program here , or reach out to Veronica directly via info@elevatecollectivesolutions.com Additional Episodes Related to this Topic: Listen to " An Autistic Perspective on Choreography and Dance Education with Isaac Iskra " Here Listen to " Applied Behavior Analysis Practices for Dance Teachers " Here Listen to " Dance Education as Ministry with Maria Daniel " Here Theme Music by GBMystical! www.gbmystical.com Recorded Via Squadcast Join the Casual Dance Teacher's Network on Facebook Here Follow our Instagram account Here Please Leave Us a Review on Apple/Spotify! <3…

When am I Supposed to Lesson Plan?! 14:35

for 12 weeks siden14:35

So by now we've established that we SHOULD have at least a general curriculum and lesson plans for each of the dance classes that we teach...but as busy dance teachers, when are we supposed to sit down and come up with these plans? There's no one-size-fits-all answer to this, but I have a few tips and tricks for how to make the most of your time to squeeze in adequate lesson planning time consistently each and every week, ensuring that you feel prepared for each class, and your students get the most out of their class time with you!
