My Dance is Not a Hobby

This dance was developed to showcase my passion and love for dance and to illustrate that dance is not just a hobby for me. I dance because it is an integral part of who I am, a profound expression of my spiritual life, and the best way I can express myself. As an artist and professional dancer, dance is my true calling.
