Dance has always been an important part of my life. Let me make this real clear. When I say important I basically mean, dancing is my life. Ever since I can remember I have been dancing. The dance studios I have attended have shaped me as a dancer and as a person.

 

 

I first attended Dance by Colleen at the age of 3, located in Pflugerville, TX. I completed my elementry school days while at Colleen's. While there I only took tap, ballet, and jazz. I wanted to do the competition team there but my mom didn't have the money. Colleen's was my beginning stages of dance. I still pass by it while going home, but it has now turned into an old lady boutique. When I left Brookhollow Elementary school, Colleen left us for "love."

 

The first day of middle school was nerve racking for me. Not only did I have to worry about finding all my classes, but also had to be concerned with meeting new students at Tinka's Dance Studio. I went there for part of middle school. I think going there made me find out my strengths and weaknesses in dancing. It was there that I first tried lyrical and hip hop, falling in love with both. Little did I know that Tinka's would become my rival in the following years.

 

I would have never gotten to where I am now without Lonestar Dance. As I started high school I became the Captain of my Dance Team and we had a choreographer from UT POM come do our dances. Sarabeth thought I was amazing and the following year, after she graduated, she opened up a dance studio. She wanted me to join and help teach. I took every class there was. It was here that I realized my passion for dance; whether it was through performance or teaching. I still teach here and take most classes (usually as an assistant), but nonetheless, take them.

 

It strikes me as odd the way that my dance studio days panned out. I never realized that the only three I went to occurred in blocks of grade schools. The different studios also represented different points in my life. At Colleen's I was innocent and plain; never getting in trouble and only taking the basics of dance. In elementary I behaved well, making good grades and always getting the Perfect Attendance Awards. I wasn't a dork, nor was I really popular. I fit somewhere inbetween the group. I shined within my friends though, just as I shined on stage.
