Over the past seven weeks, we’ve shared conversations with dancers who move and inspire us in a new series called Off Season Chats. Before we truly wrap up Off Season Chats, we have to bring it to a close OTB style. So, we will reflect on what we’ve learned over the course of these conversations and leave with a call to action. 

Themes that emerged over the course of the last seven episodes include sustainability, technology, trusting process, and building community. We’ll also be talking about what our guests said that challenged our own ways of thinking.  

We are going on a hiatus for a bit while we take time to focus on some of our other projects as independent artists. But first, we will share a sneak preview of Season 2. Follow us on Instagram or Facebook for more updates on our other projects at @ameyagking (Ameya) or @kirandance (Kiran). Podcast updates, as always, can be found on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter at @offthebeatdance.  

Today’s episode of Off Season Chats would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of our amazing listeners and the following people:    

• We Edit Podcasts for audio engineering  
• Sangeetha Kowsik for graphic design of our logo  
• Arts Horizons for the recording space 
• And a very special thanks to Wesley Beeks & Bertel King, Jr.
