Dance... dance is not something that I can describe. Dance is something that you have to feel and endure through the achievements, struggles, and yes, even the failures.

To me dance has been a way of living life, not just some silly thing that people do because their parents make them, or because their friend begged them to join so that they wouldn't be alone.

Ever since I was 6 years old my parents can recall me doing my little ballet routines around the kitchen, living room and everywhere else you can think of. Until I became a member of the MainStage Academy of Dance family, about 9 moths ago, I have not felt passionate about something that made up who I am today.

When I came to my audition at MainStage at the end of the school year in 2009 I was sick to my stomach scared. I had no idea what to expect. But at the moment when I walked through that door I felt fight at home. Everyone would say “how are you?” or “hello.” and they would never second guess saying it to a total stranger. And do you know why? Well, it’s because whenever anyone, and I mean anyone ,would just step inside that studio you would feel safe and right at home.

Within the first few months of being a part of the MainStage family I have met some of the best ballet dancers that I will probably ever meet. These outstanding leaders of dance are know by the names of Valery Lantratov and renowned Madame Boitsov, (former director of the Moscow Ballet).

My favorite genre of dance would be pointe. I like pointe so much because I’ve always loved the idea of being able to dance Ballet. One of my goals for the next few years will be to get better at Pointe and Hip-Hop overall. I plan to take every critique that anyone gives me and apply it and make myself better. Pointe is also one of the most beautiful genres of dancing. (Well at least that’s what I thank.)

That is pretty much all that I can say about my dancing. But just wait, you will see me as a dancer. You will see me in the center of a stage doing the thing that I love and adore.

FYI - There should be more Director Eddy Bray’s in the world!
