Hey, Dancer!

About Hey, Dancer!

Welcome to Hey, Dancer! — hosted by Miller Daurey, a former pro teen dancer (Paula Abdul, Joffrey) who has returned to training 3 decades later. Having cultivated a highly engaged and supportive dance community online, Miller is excited to dive deeper on everything dance with two weekly episodes! In one, Miller brings his unique perspective as an ex-dancer returning to the art form, sharing insights on… - the evolution of dance, from class to comps to the industry - living with injury and cutting-edge approaches to healing chronic pain - fostering mindfulness through guided dance meditations - responding to online feedback and comments - reviews of dance books, documentaries, and shows - and tons more! …all with a fresh, behind-the-scenes lens shaped by his inspiring journey and thriving Instagram community. The second weekly episode introduces a compelling series titled The Rest of the Story — where Miller delves into fascinating, little-known histories of dance legends and the unsung heroes who shaped the craft. Through these captivating stories, listeners will discover the hidden struggles, triumphs, and legacies of those who helped define dance as we know it today. While dedicated to helping dancers reconnect with their WHY in a culture that often prioritizes perfection over purpose, this podcast also speaks to anyone looking to reignite their creative spark or rediscover a long-lost passion. Follow along and explore all things dance with Miller!
