When creating this piece, I was most inspired by the collaboration of my team.

Uncertainties are everywhere in life.

I wanted to bring out the fierce energy of this song, and the artist, Tate McRae inspires me completely.

My dance “JUST KEEP WATCHING” holds a message for artists and audiences to trust the process whenever something seems off or unnerving.

This piece is inspired by how easily we forget to live in the moment.

Confronting the past can be difficult, but growth often happens in those uncomfortable moments.

Dance is my unique way of expressing the way of belonging.

Kata Rokkar was a self choreographed solo, with inspiration taken from dance styles like whacking, samba, African dance and jazz/contemporary fusion. In the Summer of 2024, I partially tore my ACL and was unable to dance for the entire first half of the season. When I fully healed the following summer, I took inspiration from the physical and emotional journey during my recovery time, and translated that into the movement and storytelling in my solo. The feelings I tried to convey were my burning desire to get back on the stage, and to finally dance full out again.

In this Dance, I stepped out of my comfort zone and took risks with my choreography, it had been so long since I’ve done contemporary because of my passion for Hip-Hop Dance.

I need to be strong. I need to be charismatic.

This piece is called “Drive Far”, a hip-hop heels fusion choreography I created to showcase confident sexuality.

Life is not easy, and whenever I have a bad day at school, I go home, turn on some music, and just dance.
