Business in Training | WEBINAR: Unpack Procrastination

...It's not you, it's me. 

That's what procrastination does to our psyche. We constantly think we're running late, ill-prepared and underperforming.

But you CAN do something about it. 

Procrastination is a mental battle but the good news is that means it's inside you and you can regain control!

During this free webinar,Rhonwyn (a self-professed procrastinator), will UNPACK the different types of procrastination, why you might be experiencing it and what you can do about it to get you and your business moving!

As with all free Business In Training webinars, this is a high impact session with easy to follow steps to make immediate changes to your way of working. If you're constantly feeling like you're playing a losing game, then this is a must-attend session to figure out how to abandon old ways and work to your strengths. 

While a recording will be available for a limited time after the webinar, by attending the live session, you'll be able to drill us for answers and get started asap.

Queensland Ballet | Company Class Viewing

Company Class is a daily ritual for most professional dancers, where dancers are able to prepare for their day, brush up on technique, test different steps, and connect with fellow dancers before beginning rehearsals.

Consisting of a range of balletic exercises to live classical music from a pianist, ballet class is led by a ballet master or mistress and is specifically designed to hone and develop ballet technique whilst preparing and conditioning the body for the athletic demands of classical ballet. Company Classes are a daily ritual for dancers around the world which commence with smaller and refined movements at the ballet barre and develop onto expanded, travelling movements away from the barre and across the studio floor - finishing in Grand Allegro, expansive leaps and jumps.

A Company Class viewing gives you a rare opportunity to go behind the scenes to see how dancers learn and prepare for their days. Company Class viewings provide valuable insight into the technique of dancers, athleticism, and dedication of a Company together. Don't miss the incredible opportunity to see Queensland Ballet dancers in Company Class viewings on our very own Talbot Theatre stage. A short series of dates will be offered throughout the year, click ‘book now’ to secure your ticket today.
