This competition will give my girls an opportunity to give them the confidence they need to continue their dancing for years to come. I will never forget the memories I had in my years dancing and competing and it all started for me in middle school as well. My coach in middle school did everything she could for her girls, like I am trying to do for my team, and it led me to dance in high school, college and professionally. I want nothing more than for my girls to get to experience the bonds that get formed while competing at a regional dance competition. They come from a high poverty school and would be more thankful than anyone could imagine. This project will help us work for our goal and give the girls lifetime memories.
