Nicholas's Quote on dance:
Dance is a beautiful art and once you are addicted you would be hooked for life.
When the music plays, the body grooves to the beat of the music that is what I mean by "addiction".
No one is born a dancer but if you have the passion and love for dance with the right guidance, you sure could make it!
