My talent is tap dancing. And let me tell you, my tap dancing skills have some a long way in the last few years. I love to tap, I love the preciseness of it, I love that you can tap to any style or genre of music and it is still tap. My first few years I did a big band number and an MJ number.
My 2010 talent piece.
"Boogie Bumper" by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
My 2011 talent piece.
"Black or White" by Michael Jackson.
In 2012 I decided to step back and go more traditional. Royal blue, costume dancing to "I've Got Rhythm", and a few tricks up my sleeves.
I love dancing, and my favorite style is tap. I love playing up the audience. I love the trick moves. I love the to style the dance after the famous tap dancers that paved the way. Tap dancing has been a huge part of my life. I am grateful to Kim and Willa Dean Nielsen for pushing tap in the Stargazer Company. When so many companies were turning to the trendy dance styles, they stuck to what they knew. And because of that I have a passion. Dance isn't a hobby, it is a way of life. And that is how a lot of women competing feel about their talent. It is important to them and it has helped them discover more of themselves.

That's so neat! I knew you were a dancer but didn't know you were so passionate about tap. So awesome. I had a roommate in college who did tap. Our neighbors beneath us HATED us, haha!

You are so impressive! I havent ever tried tap but I am certain it is super hard!
When was the last time you competed in Miss America? I actually had a lot to say about the talent portion last year...I was VERY disappointed...mainly because a lot of girls strapped on pointe shoes when they shouldn't have. We should talk Miss America!!
Nice stuff.
