My contact over at Fanscape attended the taping for last night’s episode of America’s Best Dance Crew and got to talk to a couple of the women from Fly Khicks. Here’s the short interview she did with Gina & Michelle of the group:

Q. How strict is life while you’re on the show? What’s your daily schedule like?

A. All day consists of dancing, dancing, and dancing. We get a break to eat or sleep. But it’s amazing. We can’t get enough of it, we love to dance.

Q. If you guys were able to win ABDC, what would you do with the $100,000 grand prize?

A. Wow, never thought of it. Of course save most of it. But we’ll have some kind of getaway or party. We also want to open up a foundation for kids to teach them how to dance, give them shoes, etc.

Q. Is there anything special you guys do before you get on stage? Do you have any good luck charms or anything?

A. We don’t have any good luck charms, but we do say a prayer before. And I think we’re going to start a new ritual today, “breathing,” before we get on. Decompress, focus, and continue on from there.

Q. What advice would you give to hard working, younger dancers that are looking to make it?

A. Never give up. Passion and dedication will get you anywhere. I’ve always been turned down and people have told me I’d never be a dancer—even teachers. I made it here because I love to dance. Just as long as you put hard work, passion, and dedication you can get anywhere.

They sound terrific! It’s great to hear that they have the proper priorities and are completely sincere about their passion for dancing. It’s a great little interview!
