Dance-based artist.
First place AMATEUR NIGHT Apollo Theater.
Appeared on So You Think You Can Dance.
Live, like to dance.
All begins with misunderstanding.
You do what you must do and you do it well.
We are not strong, We are changeable, We are easy to lose our belief.
Whenever you are in your life, now is the youngest, but now is the oldest.
Don’t you have something you should known now?
Treasure every encounter, for it will never recur.
Big opportunity always by your side.
We don’t know what we’re missing.
Stick to your faith. Believe your Belief.
In this moment, forever.
Dance, like to live.
