Tell us about your dance experience!
I have danced since I was 2 years old in the genres of ballet, tap, jazz, and modern. I just started competitive dance on a team and doing a solo. My first competition was a Showstoppers competition at the Pittsburgh, PA Regional Competition in February of 2023.
