" My favorite thing about Prima is the family bond you create with your teammates, the parents, and all the kids you coach. Dance has taught me to never take anything for granted and to cherish every second you get with that special group of people. You never know just how much it means to you until it becomes just a memory. Dance has also taught me to give 110%, not just in practice or at competitions, but in everything life might throw at you. Lastly, dance has taught me to never give up and chase every goal I have in life. No matter how big or how small."
