Am I a good dance? No, I am a terrible dancer. If you talk about break-dancing, I would actually break something, if I went to a club, I'd stay at the bar more. Although, friends have tried to teach me a bit of moves, or some moves, I am still just very terrible at it.

Yes, I am a good dancer. I love dancing. I love music. That's a big stress release for me, to go out and dance the night away, and I love getting dressed up in dancing clothes and high heels and sparkles and glitter.

Am I a good dancer? Yeah, I think I am, depending on the person I am dancing with, yeah, I think I'm a good dancer and I love dancing. I've loved dancing since I was a kid, and I still do. I don't think I am going to stop anytime soon.
