WATCH NOW

A Season of Grace

This Winter season will require empathy and grace as we watch every group navigate their own circumstances.  We can’t ever know what challenges a group is facing, and this year more than ever we need to approach every group and every performance with grace.  Shirley Dorritie is a DCI Hall of Fame Member and a psychotherapist who specializes in performance psychology.  She shares concepts and strategies that we can all bring to our groups to have a successful season wrapped in kindness.  We also discuss concepts from her new book, “Performing at the Top of Your Game,” including the idea to “Pay attention to WHAT WORKS, remember it, and do it again.”  This conversation is exactly what you need to launch your season (and your year!)
