One of my long term goal/dreams is to one day be able to have a studio of my own where I can teach my own brand of dance to the next generation. It’d be awesome to have a cru there to practice with as well. This is the way that many of the teams that … Continued
It’s the nature of the biz. Sad thing is that it’s the nature of life. The ones that work the hardest are not always the ones who get everything that they hoped for. There’s always politics involved. And it doesn’t just happen in the entertainment world. It’s all about who you know, who likes you … Continued

I’ve been really lucky to have an amazing modern instructor this year. He’s one of those instructors that you get maybe a few times in your life that really pushes and challenges you in both your strengths and weaknesses. I’ve become a much better dancer because of him.
