#NoThirds: Should You Compete or Just Train?

Saison 1 · Épisode 114

jeudi 29 mai 2025 • Durée 01:30:22

Ballet competitions are more common than ever—but do dancers really need them? In our latest episode of #NoThirds, Fran weighs in on the role competitions play in today's training landscape.

He tackles key questions from parents and dancers alike:

Are comps essential for landing trainee or second company spots?
Do they actually help with long-term career goals?
Why are so many schools and companies participating now?
What's the real value compared to strong training and company performances?

Fran brings his signature clarity and candor to a topic that's often confusing and feels high-stakes. This conversation is packed with insight regardless of whether you're all-in on the comp circuit or don't compete at all.
