me. The dancers exit the stage before me, which takes what seems like an eternity, and the MC announces; “ up next we have Kendra and Frank performing number 639 Love Hate Thing.” The crowd claps as the young dancers and family members of Caledonia Dance Company scream and cheer as we enter the beam of blinding lights directed straight at our faces. I stand patiently waiting for my music to start, holding the fake cell phone I use as a prop, worried that everyone can see the nervous sweat…

The other dance and my personal favorite are moshing which involves stationary positions, with bodies being more bent over and compacted, arm-swinging which can lead to the “death swing”. Both of these dances are not intended to harm anyone, but…

I would never have expected to dance in a quinceañera in high school. I grew up in the white neighborhood of Hermosa Beach, California where I wasn’t exposed to events like quinceañeras. In fact, when my friend asked if I wanted to be her main chambelan for her quinceañera, I gave a response fully exuding my cultural naïveté. “What the heck is a chambelan?” I replied. My experience with a quinceañera—apart from becoming a world-class dancer—led me to interact with people of different backgrounds…

huge part of my life since a very young age, and with both a mother and father as dance teachers, there was never any doubt that this would be the area I would grow to love and choose to pursue at university. My parents have always been a huge inspiration to me, and as I grew up I realised I had inherited a natural talent for performing arts from them, and unsurprisingly, for dance in particular. I regularly attend dance classes, completing my IDTA medals in freestyle, and progressing with the…

In the study, he conducted he randomly selected people to…
