April Richards My Earliest Recollection of Dance My earliest recollection of dance up until now is when I was around 8 or 9 years old I would go to my aunt’s house for summer vacations and spring break to spend with my cousin who was 6 years older than me.
My cousins are half Bohemian and American but they loved the Caribbean music, so my cousin would turn the TV off and crank up the stereo and she would show me ways to whine my hips and radically we would move on to at the time what was now as Miami Bass music and booty popping music and for about 2 to 3 hours a day a we would dance in front of the big mirror that lined the living wall and dance from the Caribbean to 2 live crew. In high school I was apart a dance group at my church and there is when I learned about liturgical dancing, mime, and step.
