Minnie And Maddie

Ask @minnieandmaddie

Favourite moment of dancing with each other??

Minnie -
My favourite moment dancing with Maddie so far has been Giselle at our ballet schools annual performance. Sharing genuine moments on stage whilst playing our roles as Giselle and Myrtha made the whole experience that extra bit exciting and fun. I love working with Maddie in the studio seeing each other grow and evolve as we start to embark of this busy year ahead xx
Maddie -
Minnie & I make a great team which is why I thoroughly enjoy dancing with her everyday but one of my favourite moments would have to be when we competed in the Fast& Fresh competition. This was the first time Minnie and I danced together and it just felt right. Not only did we receive a reward onstage but also offstage as our friendship grow rapidly! xx

When did you each start full time?

like most dancers, we both started full time so that we could advance ourselves in this art by dancing 20-25 hours a week.

Do you think you are unique?

we believe that everybody is unique in their own way. you may have similarities with the person next to you but you are your own individual!

Who was your idol when you were growing up?

Minnie - I never really had an idol, I would just look around and see what people did and tried to copy them as a child. Now I try to be the best me I can be.
Maddie - To be honest, I was completely oblivious to the world around me as I was growing up but my mum inspired me to become the person I am today.

Would you say dancing has taken up a lot of your social life? What do you do in your free time?

In one aspect you could say dancing has taken away from our social life although we have gained friendships through competitions, exams, summer schools etc. We both have remained friends with people form school and family friends so we are not just associated with dancers.
Minnie - I have a passion for designing clothes therefore I do that in some of my spare time. When I'm not doing that I am watching Pretty Little Liars, reading, socialising, doing home work or shopping :)
Maddie - In my spare time I enjoy catching up and talking to my friends and family back home. At the moment I am going on many adventures exploring my new home... and this includes shopping of course!!!

What has been a situation that most changed your outlook on life?

We have both been through some pretty tough situations which are private but Maddie's learnt to never live a day where you are not 100% happy and to do that you should eliminate all the negative people out of your life. Minnie's learnt to appreciate the things you have and to work for the things you don't, never take things for granted. :)

We are both planning on going to the Genée and no we didn't audition for the Prix.

what's your backup plan if you dont become professional dancers?

Maddie - my back up plan would be teaching. my mum is a ballet teacher and I have grown up watching and assisting her teach. nothing gives me more joy than performing onstage myself but also helping people get there too!
Minnie - Teaching (because I love working with people helping them improve and grow and also have grown up with my mum as my teacher) Fashion Design and also Photography. All the artsy careers :)

What is it like dancing all day? Do you get tired?

We definitely do get tired as you would doing so many hours of physical activity for 5 days straight but we fuel up on lots of protein to keep us going as well as hydrating lots! You get used to the physical load as you consistently work at the pace we do and it does start to get easier but never too easy therefore not giving us a challenge!

What is your diet like? I am a dancer also so I want to Stay thin but I am too scared I eat suger

Hey,
We typically eat lots of protein, fruit & veggies all healthy things to keep us going. Protein includes, tuna, nuts, chicken, salmon etc. Although you do need to keep a "thin" figure for dancing a little bit of sugar every now and then is absolutely fine!
