    Thank you for sharing you dancing journey. I wondered how you got started. My goal was to inspire my daughter by showing her AKA clips, then I saw you stepping and you was killin it, you were in the front. So I sent it to my daughter who will be in a four year institution very soon. I said "watch her and watch this". So it is has been a pleasure to watch your journey. Wish you the best in all things.

    If I graduate early I will be trying out for the dolls 2021. I kept saying there is no videos of any dolls giving advice ! I haven’t taken ballet but I’m good with everything else . I’m so nervous ! I just want to make the team and this video helped me ! I know I’ll get in the school but I hope I make the dolls . I told my mom if I don’t she can start making my arrangements!

      Heyyy girl you can still be one don't let that stop you your time will come one day just keep practicing and perfecting your craft so when your time does come you'll be sure to make it . One tip I would say is start watching them and practice from there . You being in 7th grade is a blessing to enhance your skills and get years of practice!!!

    I think you have really good content, but the background music is so distracting during the videos. Maybe you should consider just using music during transitions or with montage footage, not while you are actually vlogging/talking.
