In response to message posted by RubyVroom:Yes, I can't wait to see this article! My troupe leader has had to teach dance to two different transgendered people. One was the brother (formerly the sister) of one of the diehards in the troupe. The other is a woman (who used to be a man) who took it up to enhance their ballroom dance ability. Apparently her Latin dancing is much better!
Anyway, this woman is comfortable around women and doesn't feel very judged. However, when she was at a competition a couple months ago, she realized that half the people there were men. This made her feel very self-conscious and nervous. Consequently her dance performance didn't go very well.
I don't suppose anyone has any advice that might help her with that?
