Amelia Lowe talented contemporary dancer on “So You Think You Can Dance” Season 9 is in conversation with Namita Nayyar President Women Fitness
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
We all wish to know your professional dance journey from your childhood to reaching ‘So You Think You Can Dance Season 9’ ?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
I started dancing when I was five years old. My mom was taking dance classes at a local studio and thought that it would be a good idea to bring me along and sign me up. I fell in love with dance from the start. I didn’t start seriously training though until I was ten years old. At that point I changed to a bigger studio and began competing in local and national competitions. Every weekend I would perform groups, duos, and solos on a new stage. I believe it was during this time in my life that I learned all of the skills that I would later need when I auditioned for So You Think You Can Dance. I auditioned for So You Think You Can Dance when I was 18 years old and I was still a senior in high school.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You reached the pinnacle of success by being a professional dancer on So You Think You Can Dance Season 9 and made it into the top 12. What factors do you consider were responsible that made you achieve that?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
In order to be successful on So You Think You Can Dance it is not enough to just be a great dancer. You also have to be an interesting person that people will want to get behind and root for. You have to be extremely unique and personable. For me I have a very specific style that was unlike anyone that had seen so far.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine you shall like to share?
Ms. Amelia Lowe:
As a dancer most of my exercise comes from taking different dance classes. But I specifically work on my core because that is most important in my profession.
Having a strong core helps to maintain balance, control, and the ability to move really fast or really slow depending on what’s necessary. I strengthen my core by doing good old fashion crunches, planks, or push-ups.
