In this episode of The Leadership Dance, Chloe Misseldine, Principal Dancer at American Ballet Theatre, talks about her surprise promotion on stage after her debut as Odette/Odile at The Met, how she prepares for the technical and emotional demands of taking on leading roles in Swan Lake, Giselle, and Sylvia, and what she's learned about artistry, setbacks, and confidence along the way. She also reflects on growing up with a mother who danced with ABT, performing through injury, being named to Forbes 30 Under 30, and the importance of staying humble — especially when younger dancers are watching. 💡 Key Takeaways: Kindness is a form of leadership. How you treat people matters, whether that's in the studio, at the stage door, or online. Do the work so you can trust yourself. Preparation allows you to step on stage with freedom instead of fear. Confidence grows over time. Sticking to the basics, staying humble, and trusting the process builds lasting strength.
