Tell us about your dance experience!

I started dancing when I was two. At first, I only took ballet classes. But at the same time I was also attending gymnastics. While I grew older I started exploring different styles of dance, such as acro, hip-hop, tap, musical theater, and so many more! Throughout my young life, I’ve attended many competitions with great success. Being on stage is what I truly love doing. I can express myself when I’m dancing.

How does dance have a positive impact on your life?

Through dance, I can release all my stress from a boring school day. Dancing makes me very happy. I love seeing all my friends from my dance studio every day, knowing that we all have fun, same interest in dancing and living our life to the fullest through dance.

How do you want to use dance to have a positive impact on your community?

To me, dance is a form of expression, a form of art, and even a form of theater. People watching me dancing and seeing me happy and completely free also can have a smile on their face and appreciate my talent. I hope that through my dancing and pure happiness, I can make somebody’s day a little better.
