Sophia Lucia: Difference between revisions

Line 41:

Sophia spent a short time at the beginning of the 2012-2013 competition season competing with the Abby Lee Dance Company, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. While there, Sophia filmed several episodes of ''Dance Moms'' season 3. On the show, she was featured as a member of the ALDC's junior elite competition team, as well as the ALDC replacement team. However, this only lasted for a few episodes before Sophia and her mother went back home to compete with San Diego Dance Centre again, because her grandfather had a heart attack with 70 and the family wants to be with him, and her mom felt also that the development of the story line on season three could gave her daughter a negative image and development and didn*t like the environment of the show. But Sophie herself didn*t and had just positive memories.

In last years she developed more and more a passion for teaching. For any ages and on any levels, from bloody beginners to master students and has been all over the country teaching her technique method called RAFT for turns - '''R'''ectangle (shoulder-shoulder-hip-hip-), '''A'''rch (highest evaluation when on arch), '''F'''ocus (of own eyes) and '''T'''ight (keep tight with rectangle, arch and focus on body when moving).<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/p/CFfQd1mH99F/?hl=en Sophia IG RAFT]</ref> She posted a lot of her private lessons with kids on her Instagram account. She is really good with kids and asked them the most important question: ''"Where is your confidence?"'' - End of 2016 Sophie stopped competing, the official reasons were, after she got pro at such a young age and competed for everything a dancer could compete for and won so many dance titles she cannot gain much more by still competing. Some owners and promoters asked her also not to compete. because she would make some kids nervous that they had withdrawn before they even entered the stage.
