“I want everyone to know how much I enjoy dance, so they can feel that joy too.”
How does dance have a positive impact on your life?
Dance has always made me feel happy. Even if I have had a bad day it helps me to remember that I have dance. I LOVE dance and want to stay with it.
How do you want to use dance to be a positive influence on your community?
I want everyone to know how much I enjoy dance, so they can feel that joy, too. I also think that no matter what others say if it makes you happy and you are passionate for it, you should probably do it. If my community sees how the kind of passion I have can bring joy, maybe other people can be brave to follow their passion too.
