In my dance, I have combined different Indian styles such as Bharatanatyam & Garba. This is how I want to try and change the world: by helping people connect through love of art and by finding the unity in their diversity, creating new combinations of cultures and dance.
I chose the song A Million Dreams from the movie The Greatest Showman. The movie inspired me to try to make the world a better place. The dance is a combination of different moves from gymnastics and ballet. Every move in my dance is unique and every dream I have is unique. The title of the song is exactly how I’m going to change the world. I have a million dreams about how to change the world and make it a better place for everyone so everybody will feel welcome in this world that we all share.
Anything can happen, but the bones represent us as a beloved society, a group of people who helps each other up for success, etc. I can change the world by keeping us strong as a group.

My choreography to the song "Speechless" by Naomi Scott is connected to the theme "I will change the world by" - standing up for what's right. I chose this song because I can clearly connect to the lyrics "I won't be silent. When things are wrong, I'll do what's right for the world. In my dance I want to show that when others make mistakes or bad decisions, I have to be the one to stand up for what's right and change the world for the better.
Rise up is related to the theme because it is talking about my rising up and changing the world. I chose this song because it inspired me a lot. I love it so much! One day I want to rise up and help the community. I want to help elderly. I want to be a role model for little kids. I want them to look up to me. That is why I made this choreography to this song because I think it will help inspire other people just like me to rise up against the normal to make change.
