I am what I am. I am a dancer. I could not live with out my dance. To turn on the music and let my body flow: undulations, rib circles, mayas, takseems, and three-quarter shimmies all escaping from my body and moving to the rhythm of the music.
Then it is the night of the show and now I am a performer. The bright lights or hot sun, the large crowd in front filled with energy and the pressure to be my best saturate me with excitement. So when the music starts it's all smiles and hip-lifts that wow the
crowd and fill me with the joy of a small child on Christmas.
Though dance is important it is not the only thing that states what I am. For I am snowboarding, college, and family. I am Fuore, my 7 month old, black, Great Dane that
is too large for her own good and the most beautiful, loving dog ever. I am my fabulous friends that with out I could not survive this crazy world. I am my boyfriend of five years that has given me more support than could ever be expected during school and dance.
I have grown and changed a lot over the last five years for I went from a tomboy that has a black belt in Karate and played rugby for two years in high school, to a dancer that wears skirts all the time. So now I am a dancer with the know-how to kick your ass!
This is what I am and I am proud of what I am.
