To answer the question: "At 6 years old, what did you want to be..."
When I was 6 years old, I wanted to be a gymnast and a figure skater! When I watched the Olympics witnessed the women perform the gymnastics and the figure skating, I felt so alive! It was so beautiful for my eyes to see. My enthusiasm for this sport was met with ridicule, laughter, and doubt the moment I expressed myself to my family. I was told, I was "too fat", we were "too poor", and that it was "unrealistic" to think I could ever be a gymnast, skater, or dancer. "You could never do that," is what I was told. I didn't stand a chance. So that desire was crushed and I was so afraid to ever try out any sports or dance out of fear of being laughed at. To which I then decided, "I want to be loved, and to love... I want to be supported and encouraged by family..." It's why being here dancing with you all means so much to me. I get live my dream of dancing and I am so grateful.
