Raw and Real Conversation for the Communal Ideal
Episode 28: Hip-hop to the Studio
In this episode of The Good Foot Podcast, we witness a conversation between Quilan Cue Arnold and a dance pioneer, Robin Dunn! The conversation takes us through the skills that were valued in the 80s/90s versus today, how to cultivate and pass down skills as a teacher, and understanding a key to longevity within the dance field.
