In this episode, we’re diving into the essentials of mental health for dance teachers with psychotherapist and professional development coach Jenn Horton.

Jenn first discovered FCBD® Style in 2017 with instructor Liz Malcom, seeking a mindful way to manage anxiety — and found not only healing, but a lifelong passion for this dance form. Today, she co-leads Divination Dance in San Antonio, TX, and teaches mindful bellydance classes that help students build positive relationships with themselves through movement.

Together, we’ll explore how to protect and recharge your own energy as a teacher, create emotionally safe classroom environments, and troubleshoot common challenges that impact the group dynamic. We’ll also discuss what it really means to accommodate students with mental health diagnoses — and where a teacher’s role begins and ends.

Whether you teach weekly classes, lead workshops, or mentor other instructors, this conversation offers practical strategies to keep your teaching joyful, sustainable, and centered.
