Ok so from school and working I have not had time to go shopping and have some me time and have been wanting a michael kors purse for a very long time have not had the time to shop, look and see without being in a rush and finally on my break I decided u know what enough is enough lol so Finally I bought me my purse and loved it! This photo I had to do a 1940s photo shoot for my senior project and I had so much fun I love to learn the history of beauty. this business card holder I recieved from a client and was touched. She gave it to me the night of the event after she performed what I choreographed for her. Alot of ppl dont appreciate the hard work u put into and the late nights of choreographing and stress, to make everything as perfect as you can. I was very honored.
buSo it's been forever since Ive been on here and miss everyone but I have been busy with dancing, choreographing and school. Ive been doing fashion shows, photo shoots and choreographing for clients. But I love it. I almost done with college for cosmo thank God. Cant wait till graduation I love my dance career and its my top priority but I love beauty as well hair, makeup, facial, pedis, manis, all of the above although in the field I love makeup and chemical meaning color, high lites and all that good stuff more than hair cuts. This photo up here is my fall look I've been getting into this brown lips and a deeper red color. I ve been a red head going on 2 yrs and I have had all kinds of reds you could think of a but I thought this one I liked best and recieved great comments on it.
Ok so it's been another long time since I've been on here. And sad to say that I've lost touch with my friends. I have been extremly busy choreographing for clients one after another. This time I got hired to choregraph for two clients for the same event so I've been going back and forth with them practicing. Talk about tired. But I love what I do. So in just a short notice I had to choreograph for two different people with only two weeks till the event. I knew I had to get a move on it and not only work myself to my best but also working them twice as hard since they are performing it. After I'm done with their practicing at 10am-10pm I head to the studio to work on some dancing with my friend Paul who is an incredible dancer. Paul has been helping me with some cool dance stuff for a video I'm doing and am keeping it a secret till I get the results I want and dont want to jinx it in anyway possible. Did I mention I'm going to school too? Yeah another part of my busy everyday life. SO here is a video of me practicing on my own thing after just go done working all day with my clients. This was filmed more less 1am. I hope you all enjoy it just as much as I enjoyed dancing it.
When I'm being the judge for other artists on their auditions or if its for my auditions for my crew I like to tell these talents that when coming to audition and they ask what to bring I always say:
I DON'T CARE HOW FAT YOU ARE, HOW SKINNY YOU ARE, WHAT'S ON YOUR RESUME, WHO YOU HAVE TRAINED WITH, WHERE YOU HAVE TRAVELED, HOW LONG YOU'VE BEEN DANCING , HOW PRETTY/CUTE YOU ARE OR HOW UGLY YOU ARE, WHAT BIG ARTIST YOU'VE MET.
All that matters is if you can dance because people surprise you everyday. I can have the fat girl dance better than a skinny girl or the ugly girl is more talented than the pretty girl or the one with a full resume is nothing better than the person next to them with an empty resume. Or the dancer who's been dancing for less time than the one whos been dancing all their life. I like to share this with those of you who go through this when you audition and you being told the most hurtful words that can cause serious damage physically and emotionally.
I've been asked to teach some choreography for a dance studio and be a judge for open auditions for the younger generation. This is what I say before they come in to audition for me. I believe this is whats important.
Wow...I've been gone for so long. I really have been so very busy with dancing that it kept me away this long. I have been getting booked to choreograph one client after another and just reciently got booked in years in advance...2012, 2013, 2014, yeah tell me about it. But I love it! I also had surgery in Novemeber which I could not rest at all after the surgery bc of events going on. I had a bump on my back and it started to grow and it was really irritated. I ended up in the emergency room with the help of my mom. They had told me I had a tumor and did the surgery right there and than to get it removed and to get it tested and to make sure it was cancer free. They stitched me up, gave me meds and sent me on my way. Now this was around 1am. I had family that came down waiting for us. I was high on the meds and had to wake up to be in my cousins wedding the next day so no rest there. I enjoyed the special day with my cousin and was in pain bc the meds were to strong for me but went on with it. The following day I had to rise and shine and ready to meet up with my client and her 30 friends to learn my dance choreography for a special event for them. So yeah no rest at all. Good news everything was good ..results said it was a cyst and cancer free. Thank you God! If things couldnt get any better my migranes had been kicking in everyday and not even excedrin was helping and had been stressing for some reason with this particular event. But its over and done with and I get to finally rest till next year. I had planned to visit LA again many times but due to bookings I had to change my plans for next year hopefully. I also plan to go back to school for makeup so hopefully things go according to plan. . I did get nice shoes lol for my bday from family and friends for my collection that I would like to share with u all there pretty cool lol..more shoes to dance in haha. well till next entry about my shoes bc right now am headed out lol. Merry christmas to all!

I'm in the process of doing that and meeting ppl, and dancers whom I want them to be apart of this experience with me. Alot of ideas that are popping in my head, what I want, what song I want to choreograph and use for the reel, what I want the costumes to look like, its alot to process and its taking alot of my time ...I need it to be perfect. So be waiting for the videos of the rehearsal, backstage and the final touch of the reel. I also met a wonderful dancer name Ted who is from the same town I am and he's an incredible dancer and we are discussing some other projects to do..we are going to partner up and do some sick shi*t...working hard together and workshops are one thing we are going to do and some performance of us two.

April Garza, has been dancing since she was 5 years old. She started to dance at the age of 5 with Manroe ballet school in Corpus Christi but found out she wanted more than ballet and later found her passion at just 7 years old in Folkorico Dance (spanish heritage dancing). Started to learn Folkorico dancing with a group Ballet Folkorico de Guadalupe from her home town Alice,Tx. Later, her dance career brought her to meet a little more advance group Ballet Folkorico de Estraes from a Beeville, Tx where her mother would drive a long drive to take her. With that group she learned at an early age of traveling, meeting people around the world who share the same passion as her and joined NDGF (National de grupos FOlkoricos) where they would have workshops and meet well known maestros(dance instructors) around the world to come and teach at these workshops. With that organization she traveled to Kansas City, Missouri., Veracruz, Arizona, New Mexico and many more. Later at just 15 yrs old she got picked up by a professional Maestro to join his Folkorico group "Ballet Folkorico Viva Mexico. She was one of the youngest members to be in the adult division and picked up very quickly. She traveled to variety places for performing and different locations: Chicago, Veracruz, Monterray, Nuevo Leon, Azteca, Rio Barvo, and many more. With Ballet Folkorico Viva Mexico, she learned different kinds of dance on the side salsa, rumba, cumbia different kinds of dance. At 17 she auditioned for a modeling agency and made it but relise her passion was more into dance and acting. In highschool she was part of Kingsville, Tx drill team where her dance took another turn and took a break from dance with all the traveling she wanted to enjoy her last year in highschool. During her break she started to see street dancing and started to teach herself on what she saw. At 2007, she was writing a script to try it out about dancing and met some cheer coaches who let her use their gym to come up with dances for her little project. Looking at her dance they lead her to have the courage to open up a dance group to teach. She took into consideration and was undecided but went ahead with the offer and had young teen kids join and thought this will be good to help get them off the streets and use their talent for better. April than traveled to L.A., California and took some classes with choreographer chopper who helped choreograph the movies :stomp the yard and You got served to advance her dancing skills and had blast learning new things. Later after teaching she got a call to be in a music video and met a outstanding artist Michelle Garcia. Help her choreographer for the video and being a booty bump girl in her video got offer to travel with her and become her backup dancer. In acting, she had gotten a call to be an extra for the television series "Friday Night Lights " for there pilot and wanted to see how the field works behind the cameras and loved it she went back for second season as an extra and now wants to push for acting as well.
