Contestant And Tap Dancer Kyle Van Newkirk Chats On World Of Dance

Get ready tonight for Kyle Van Newkirk to blow you away with his tap dancing on “World Of Dance”. Note that he is from where I live. His Mom and I use to work together. Check out what he says about “World Of Dance” below.

WOD: What was the best part of competing in World of Dance?

There were definitely a lot of amazing things about competing in World of Dance, besides the fact of it being the biggest dance competition in the WORLD. I would say the best part of competing in World of Dance, for me, was the competitive aspect. Being in that environment, with the world’s greatest dancers of this generation, was absolutely ridiculous. It definitely challenged me to strive for greatness alongside the best dancers in the world, just because everyone pushed so hard to achieve perfection. It’s something I will never forget.

WOD: Who’s your favorite judge, and why?

My favorite judge is most definitely Derek Hough. Granted, the dude has a background in tap. The man has a work ethic within dance that is inspiring to all, as well as his numerous matured dance styles being so unique to himself. But still, Jennifer and Ne-Yo are both ridiculously amazing and inspiring!

WOD: What do you love most about dance?

The reason that I love dance is the fact of creative freedom of expression and impression. Dance, all around, is a beautiful art form that is able to please the audience visually as well as auditorily in one fell swoop of a performance without the need of special effects. Dance, truly, has no creative limits nor boundaries, it’s only limit is how much you want to push yourself in order to achieve perfection.
