All my life I loved to sing, but always did it as an Amateur, was just in fun for yourself. And as a professional musician didn’t have time. Sport is full immersion.

I could just go to school and there’s nothing more to do, I would be crazy! Used to, I have always loaded the day. Then appeared the idea to engage in singing, dancing, because I love it.
