Jimena Castillo from Rison, Arizona, is B Dancewear’s Dancer of the Month for December, 2016. She is a 6 year old who loves to dance. Like many 6 year olds, she has a sweet tooth and loves to eat chocolate! When not dancing, Jimena likes playing with her friend Josie Miller.
She initially became enamored with the idea of dancing when she watched her big sister, Marcela, dance. She loved it and her parents finally allowed her to start taking lessons when she was just three years old. Eventually, she was able to compete.
Jimena’s happiest moments dancing are the reason she dances. Her instructors, Mrs. Amanda and Mrs. Joye, have encouraged her to dance for Jesus. Jimena enjoys praying before she dances and enjoys shining on the stage for Jesus.
At this point in time, Jimena is looking forward to the time that she learns to do an aerial. She also looks forward to learning to do back flips. Although these goals may seem somewhat simple at this point in time, they are not that easy – especially for a sis year old!
Jimena says that she and her mom are very satisfied with their experience buying from B Dancewear. Her mom loves B Dancewear’s selections and the quality of their products. Jimena loves the costume her mother has made for her with the base items from B Dancewear.
Jimena’s goals for this next year are to continue to dance for Jesus, to learn more dance tricks and dance techniques and hopefully win some competitions. She really hopes to win the Triumph Dance Competition.
It is Jimena’s dream that she will someday become a professional dancer and be able to “dance on a really big stage.”
She is very proud of the dance family to which she belongs, RSDA (Rison S tarz Dance Academy). She is also grateful to her parents for allowing her to dance and to her dance teachers for their efforts and their time that enables her to do what she really loves – DANCE!
