Hi Everyone,

My name is Tusani Atkins

I have been dancing from the age of 10 and I am now 16. I have studied dance with Urban Dance since 2010 and wish to pursue my dream which is to be a choreographer. I have been teaching community classes and workshops and I keep striving to better my craft and dance style. My dream is to eventually have my own dance company. I now have been given a rare opportunity to be coached and trained at one of the worlds most prestigious training camps in Germany; Urban Dance Camp. The UDC offers an incredible way of learning and experiencing new things. The training is for a week and It is a great privilege to be selected for this opportunity.

I now have to try and raise enough money that will help me with flights, accommodation and training fees.

Every little bit will help.

Your generosity is very much appreciated.

Thank you.
