Tati McQuay: Difference between revisions

Line 36:

Tati got homescooled. She was in a regular school until seventh grade. When she wasn't in school for some reasons her teachers brought the homework on set (what a service). She finds homeschooling easier for her job, but somehow she missed regular, especially when she is watching her younger brothers. She was in her last, senior year in high school in 2021.

She started dancing at home in Canada when she was two years old. When she went first time in a dance studio she did know she was actually too young by a couple months, because minimal age to take classes was four. But she felt she was meant to do this and pretended to be a couple ~~month~~ older, so no one stopped the kid and no one noticed it until she was four. At the age five, when she was going home, she found a little book "One day I going to move to Hollywood." and made a picture of it. So she thinks she is exactly where she should be now and everything happens for a reason. Tatiana danced competitively at the Bojangles Dance Arts Studio in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada.

Later at the age of seven, she moved actually to LA with her mom and two younger brothers, because her dad worked in LA and her parents had too much long distance flights and they decided moving all together to the world capitol of industry dancers. It was destiny for Tati, and she continued dancing in LA at "The Rage" dance complex. She was dreaming these days to get on TV shows, but had no thoughts about the process how to get there. Then she was discovered at the Rage by some managers and agents as talent and started first time doing an audition - for a Toyota Prius commercial. That's how her career started, because she ended up booking it and started learning about the industry process when she was eight and was very optimistic at that time. "Yeah, next audition and I'll get it!". But then she started realizing "Your began a luck" (Karate Kid) and not getting every audition. She deals with the lot of "No"-s by following the advice of her parents and is growing with the challenge. But she admits, it was hard for her at the beginning, when she was younger and didn't understand the reasons behind this and got sometimes envious seeing all her own friends had success too, while her own basket often stayed empty. She learned to be happy for them, because there be always the next one and it will newer end, if you don't stop at all; especially with the hard working. In her opinion, the most challenging part about being a dancer, is keeping motivated in such a competitive atmosphere. The older she gets, the tougher it gets.
