Billy started dancing at Dance Connection in 2007. His love of dance started before he even stepped foot into the studio, as his cousins influenced him to become a dancer. Even though his favorite genre of dance is Hip-Hop, he studies all genres of dance including Ballet, Jazz, Tap, and Contemporary. He has been part of the Competition Performance Team for 6 years and performed in 10 different Recital Company opening numbers. While he loved performing with the Team in Disney and aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, nothing can beat the feeling of performing for the Suffolk County Make-A-Wish Foundation, which he has done for many years with Dance Connection. Dance Connection has become a major part of his life over the past few years giving me a safe space to be himself and an extended family.
