The subject of this video was clearly very excited about the opportunity to perform at the 2015 dance competition in Middletown, Pennsylvania.
Her movements are elegant and dramatic, until she makes the mistake of tripping. But that doesn’t stop her from finishing her performance on a high note.
Not embarrassed by the fall, the resourceful girl turns the ballet number into a freestyle dance. She showed off her breakdancing skills and even sang a song before she and the girls left the stage.
Performing in front of a crowd, regardless of its size, is quite a nerve-wracking experience, even for an adult.
Making a mistake in front of everyone, an adult is often so lost that he may subsequently burst into tears.
And this young talent managed to turn his mistake into an amazing improvisation we take off our hats!
Children often experience pressure from parents, other students or teachers who expect them to be perfect.
As for this girl, she allowed herself to be imperfect and the audience fell in love with her precisely for this.
When she fell, she hesitated for only a split second, making a decision.In a moment, she was on the floor, performing complex breakdance elements that would be the envy of many professionals.
The other girls on stage were visibly confused as they stopped performing their rehearsed moves and froze as they watched their counterpart conquer the audience.
Once the girl realized that she was now in control of the show, she made another interesting choice.
She began to sing along to her own rhythm and encouraged the other girls to join in. After exchanging a few confused looks,
the other girls picked up the song from The Land Before Time cartoon. The young star dances and sings while the other girls sing along.
They are all a little embarrassed by the unexpectedness of what is happening, but nevertheless follow her example.
As the song comes to an end, all four girls leave the stage, throwing confused looks at each other. It is clear that no one expected such a turn of events.
However, in order to take such a situation into your own hands and not be dishonored, a certain courage and resourcefulness is required, for which we applaud the dancers.
If you stumble, fall, or make a mistake, just remember this little girl. She did not lose her enthusiasm until the very end, without giving any sign that something was embarrassing her.
When she fell, she immediately got to her feet and made the most of this situation, showing a real show.
It’s okay to make mistakes from time to time, but the young dancer didn’t care. She danced like no one was
watching and didn’t let a slip stop her. In fact, this child could very well teach us a couple of lessons both in life and in dancing.
