Elodie's nomination story

At 16 being able to share my passion of dance with younger children and teach them how to express themselves through dance is a joy. I hope to teach children with disabilities to dance and not to be affected by their diability. I would like to go into hospitals and be able to give children the opportunity to still do the same things as their friends. My sister passed away from leukaemia at age 5 but we were in hospital all the time looking after her and she hated it when I left to go to lessons because she wanted to come. Just because you're ill or have a disability it shouldn't stop you from movements to music. I currently teach children from ages 3 to 10 every Saturday and will be getting my teaching qualification to teach dance alone in December. My dream is for children all over the country not matter what is wrong with them to be able to share the joy of dance.
