unique dancer it’s my third year so I’m

I’m just gonna you know I’ve got some
style so hopefully that’ll help me find
a style you got I’m actually a
contemporary jazz dancer and what do you
what do you specialize in well that
everything jazz contemporary musical
theaters what I’m gonna do today and why
should the judges choose you because I
really want this and I work really
really hard so hopefully they’ll see
that touch the importance of charisma
today being a dancer that’s everything
you know because I mean it’s a TV show
at the end of the day so they got to be
able to jump through the screen and make
people pick up that phone and vote for
them if you you know you’re getting
nothing it’s not going to translate
heart like you bedazzle well I started
when I was a little girl did ballet jazz
and after that you know see the MC
Hammer videos Michael Jackson videos and
you know so are you gonna be doing today
hip-hop yeah what makes you unique
hip-hop dance I got my little style my
own style i can’t i can’t say that no
one can duplicate but i’m pretty unique
in my freestyling tell us about that
unique haircut how was that haircut
gonna get you through the doors and give
you a pass to the next stage or so you
can get that well you see this is what
I’ll help
there I at first right so I come in and
it is like whoa hair and then they’ll
want to watch me right so instead of
just having being like normal and it’s
just like okay and then they kind of
drift away my hair getting my first and
then my energy and my dancing will get
to keep them there what makes you guys
unique and how are you going to get
through the next stage I’m trying to be
more diverse have every kind of dance
style in my hip hop style I’m pretty big
mix-up in between breaking a hip hop so
I’m gonna take my skills to the next up
hope we make it to the next round w
freestyle hip hop rnb i do african salsa
a little bit of everything actually
what do you feel that your tap dance
will get you through the next level
because I think I’m a different tap
dancer and I think tap is not being
shown enough people don’t see tap enough
and people don’t think that tap has to
tech a technical aspect to it as well so
I think that just a showcase tap as much
as as we possibly can it’s great what
advice do you give two dancers when they
do the first audition what’s the biggest
advice you want to give them talent
doesn’t lie you see the town but
sometime don’t be your own judge also
don’t think I’m not good enough this I
just seem to show the American version I
City Canyon version the dance was
amazing yeah the amazing but you are
amazing to just show up and dance
