While hip hop dancer Reese Hatala displays nothing but fierceness on the dance floor, in real life she’s a bubbly and giggly 10-year-old with big dreams and a whole lot of talent.

I love the way hip hop makes me feel! I love how I connect with the music and all these feelings come out of my body!

I love artists like Taylor Swift, Beyoncé and Lady Gaga! I love that these ladies are strong influencers and amazing performers!

Being one of the youngest kids on projects or on dance crews is challenging as I am consistently pushed to dance at my best! I love working with older kids, though, and because I’m the smallest I usually get to have a part where I’m featured or lifted!

The best part of having Taylor as my sister is that she constantly inspires me to work hard, challenge myself, and go for my dreams! Taylor and I love dancing and working together! We also are a little competitive and that helps me dance to my greatest potential.

My dream is to one day dance with an artist on tour!

If I wasn’t a dancer I would be a makeup artist! I love playing and experimenting with makeup!

My favorite job was when my sister Taylor and I danced together with Justin Bieber on his Purpose Tour in our hometown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada! It was a dream come true!

I’m going to keep training and pushing myself in dance! I’m taking acting classes, too! My sister and I also have a few videos we are working on! 🙂 I’m just super passionate about inspiring young girls like me to go for your dreams! With hard work, dedication, and believing in yourself you can achieve anything you set your mind to!
