When I was in my first year at Ryerson University, enrolled in the Theatre Performance Dance program, I was told by the director that “it (would) take a miracle” for me to be accepted into second year. Being a very competitive program, the Ryerson Dance Faculty “cuts” students who do not meet their standards each term for the first two years of the four-year degree. I was one of those students, nearing the end of my first year. This is when I sought out Beth’s assistance. Her guidance though various mind tools – imagery, visualization and goal setting, helped me perform a miracle that year. These strategies and techniques not only got me through first year at Ryerson, but also ensured my success for the remaining three years, completing my BFA with honors. By setting goals and writing them down, I was able to focus my intentions and enthusiasm to actualize my dreams! In the spring of 2007 I performed in two music videos and performed at Massey Hall as a backup dancer for Feist. The skills I learned from Beth’s guidance and counseling has been integrated into my character and personality, which I can now use for the rest of my professional career - and my life. Dream and ACT on it.
