Balanced Ballerinas is a podcast where classical ballet meets modern wellbeing.

Hosted by Georgia — ballet teacher, studio owner, and founder of Balanced Ballerinas — this podcast explores ballet not just as a technique, but as a lifelong practice for discipline, creativity, balance, and self-trust.

With over a decade of experience teaching classical ballet, Georgia shares thoughtful solo reflections and conversations with dancers, teachers, and creatives who view movement as a tool for personal growth, leadership, and sustainable living.

Episodes explore topics such as:

• Ballet technique and embodied practice
• Wellbeing, nervous system regulation, and resilience
• Teaching, learning, and studio leadership
• Creativity, discipline, and the ballet of becoming

Balanced Ballerinas is for adult dancers, teachers, studio owners, and anyone drawn to ballet as a pathway to a more grounded, balanced life.
