My name is Ariana. I am a dancer, but I would like to teach others or maybe even to help teach. I am a high school student. I have been dancing for 5 to 6 years, dance is my passion. I have done Jazz, Pom, and i've also done Drill. Teaching would be my opporutnity to show others what it is like to feel the relief of showing a crowd the best you've got. I hope that I do get a call, I would be really happy with myself and my passion for what I love to do most, especially to be able to share my experience with others.
