About Me
My name is Haley Simmons. I only train on dance fusion but I workout to try and get stronger on the side. I began dancing when I was 3 years old at Bunker Dance Center. I am familiar with dance since I have been doing it for almost 13 years. As I worked hard on my technique, I slowly got up to NYDC, which was called Nevadas Youth Dancers Company at Bunker. I was on that team for a good 3 years doing all types of styles before I quit and joined Dance Fusion. I wanted a more high school experience while still dancing. Fusion is so fun and my sister would always talk about it which interested me even more!
I have many goals for this year on Dance Fusion. Some personal goals that I have are I want to get better on my turns and be more confident when doing them. This is a goal that I have been wanting to get for awhile and if I focus and get my core strong I can accomplish it. I also want to get more tricks down such as aerials and a head spring. A goal I have for the whole team is to be clean. When we come together I want to be as one. With this we need to help each other and work hard.
In the future, I see myself going to college and traveling the world. I don't exactly know where I want to go to school yet but somewhere I can learn a lot while having fun. I also can see myself dancing but the thing that is holding me back is not knowing where dance could take me. There are professional teams and colleges I am interested in. I do want a career that is financially supporting my family. I don't want all of that to come from my husband, I want to help out. Dance is a very important thing to me and if I do continue it in the future I will be happy with it.

My video is about how we are living each day over and over again. And how it feels repetitive, since we cannot go out and do normal things anymore.The most difficult part to my video was editing all the separate clips into one and lining it up perfectly with the music. After creating my video, I learned that I could use more angles throughout it and more movement through my body that the camera was focused on. I am going to apply these corrections to my next video/ solo so I can make it be the best it can be.
