Rachel Robnett is more than just a student, she is also a very busy dancer. As anyone who does a sport or after school activity knows, your life can sometimes be consumed by this activity. A lot of the time you have to know how to manage your schedule and be able to make school and other activities work around it. She has many different dance classes and other things going on every day except for Fridays and sometimes Sundays, but she has learned how to manage everything which has made life a bit easier.

For some people, their sport or activity is only a couple days a week, but for others like Rachel Robnett, dance is almost every day. She does six different types of dance, which include Ballet, Pointe, Lyrical, Tap, Acrobatics, and Jazz. Robnett explains that Lyrical and Jazz are her two favorite types of dance that she does, and the reason why she likes Lyrical is because of the flowiness and how graceful it is.

“Dance-  it’s a huge part of my life, like it’s not something a common person would do every single day of their lives, and just how involved I am with that, I think that’s kinda cool how much I do with dancing,” Rachel Robnett on how her life is different with dance.

Though dance takes up a lot of her time, Robnett still finds time for friends and for school. “She is very elegant I guess, like very flowy and very light on her feet, she is a very gorgeous dancer,” Sedra Jones a friend and a fellow dancer describes the type of dancer that Robnett is. Robnett and Jones dance at the same dance school and they have done many different dances together.

Robnett is a talented person in many ways. Her dance teacher describes Robnett as an advanced dancer who is hardworking and dependable. She is able to get good grades, do dance classes on daily basis, and still have a pretty normal teenage life. Right now Robnett is competing in four group dances, a solo and a duet, this means that her schedule is pretty filled with rehearsals which can sometimes be time consuming. Though sometimes it may be difficult to balance everything in her schedule she still manages to do it and still manages to have a pretty good life!
