Meet 19 year old Sandy Dance a young man from Bridlington who is trying to make it in the cut throat world of professional dance. Sandy has had a love of dance since an early age and made his stage debut aged 4, in the role of a rat in a musical version of The Pied Piper performed by the Bridlington young 'uns nursery in 1996. It should be pointed out that Sandy's surname is a happy coincidence rather than a deed poll change tribute to his one true love - dance. Sandy hopes to soon move to London to take on roles in West End Musicals and wishes to one day be a big dance star! When he is not dancing Sandy enjoys walking his dog Abdul named after celebrity pop star Paula Abdul, but he laughs "It's nothing like opposites attract. If me and Abdul took two steps forward and two steps back we would never get anywhere!" He also enjoys the novels of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring famous detective Sherlock Holmes. Although he enjoys every second when dancing Sandy also believes there is a serious side to dance. "Dance can be used as a form of expression. I send a serious message about how I feel about the world when I dance." Let's see Sandy's message now. Introducing Sandy Dance...
