love with dance by starting by describing the first time I saw the Nutcracker ballet. I pointed to the stage and said, “I want to do that.” I was a toddler and I found my passion. From that moment all the way to my freshman year of college, I thrived on the dedication and joy that ballet brought to my life. Spending my dance career from age three to nineteen studying ballet, I decided to expand my dance training. Trying out for my college’s dance team provided a different approach to dance than…

opportunity to express myself and doing something meaningful are my three main reasons to study performing arts. While almost every little girl finds it amusing to dance in front of the mirror in a new pink tutu, for me the art of movement was always a part of my day and became my steady companion. From the first time I put on my ballet shoes, dance has been my source of inspiration, self-expression and pure joy. It is not only everyday practice but a part of who I am and what I want to be. I…

Being able to choreograph and perform in dance concert is a very unique and amazing experience.

If you asked me today if dance was ever an obstacle in my life I’d probably tell you no. In reality, dance was never really easy for me in the beginning. My journey as a dancer started all the way back to when I was three years old. Growing up, I was never really the girly type. I was more of a sports kind of girl thanks to my older brothers and dad. My mother on the other hand did not want me to go down that route, so she introduced me to the world of dance. It was a love hate relationship at…

for my future career. As a dance major, physical and mental endurance is required in order to excel in this field. Everyone enrolled in this major has to be strong and be willing to put in extra time to ace the class. One thing that set me apart from most dancers was that I did not have technique. Many dancers started dancing when they were toddlers. When I was accepted I felt out of place. I started dancing three years earlier at the community YMCA,not a real dance studio unlike other…

would do dance at the community center, but as I grew older I moved to a studio. I have been at two dance studios my entire life, one better for me than the other. My first studio started off great, I made the company, I had very many friends, and I loved dancing and being there. Unfortunately, this only lasted a year or two. One summer before tryouts for the company, I told my mom I did not want to dance anymore and I wanted to cheer. My mom was willing to let me do what I want, but my dance…
