In this episode of the Leta’s Tap Styles podcast, Leta and Amanda discuss the challenges and experiences involving eye dominance in dance, specifically addressing the left eye dominance and its impact on performing pirouettes. They explore the neurodiversity within dance studios, the importance of tailored accommodations, and the misunderstandings faced by autistic individuals. The episode also touches on the significance of supportive environments, individual preferences like favorite Pokémon and characters from My Little Pony, and the need for better training for educators working with neurodiverse students. Additionally, they highlight the unique aspects of their dance studio, Autistic Wings Dance Company, and encourage support through donations.
