Dancing
Not only does Madison love acting, she also loves to dance!
Its been a big part of her life since she was three days old and went to a dance competition of her older brother's. She began formal dance training at the very young age of 18 months and by the age of two had competed and won in her first dance competition, performing her solo "I'm Cute". From then her love for and career in dancing has took off, with Maddie enjoying every step of the way. Check out lots more dance pictures here.
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH MADISON:
What's your favorite type of dance?
Thats hard because I like almost everything. I think my favorites are tap and lyrical. I also really like jazz too.
What do you think your best memory is from dancing?
When I did "I'm Cute"...this was my 1st time competing a solo and I loved winning that huge trophy that was bigger than me.
What is the reason that you love to dance so much?
You get to learn all kinds of cool moves like leg spins, turns in second, illusions, etc. I love being on stage competing for the judges and having everybody looking at me.
If you could give advice to someone who was learning to dance, what would you say?
Do the straddles and the splits a lot. You need to stretch. Have fun!!! Don't give up. If you are competing, just remember its only an opinion. Just do the best you can do and have fun! Thats what my mom always tells me.
Dancers Rock!
Just keep dancing,
Maddie
