CALGARY – They’re only 8 years old, but Aaron and Jacob Strickland are hoping to make a big splash on the dance floor this week.
The Calgary twins have been dancing hip hop together since they were 3 years old.
They’re among 65 people at the “Change the Game” competition and training sessions, where dancers have come from as far away as England and Australia.
The event’s hosted by Bobby Mileage, a hip hop veteran from Boston who’s danced with performers like Will Smith and Mariah Carey.
“You guys show so much potential, because you have all the moves down,” Mileage told the Strickland twins on Monday.
Looking ahead a few years, Aaron said he wants to “become professional” and dance on stage.
Change the Game runs Monday through Sunday in Calgary, with the top dancers competing for $60,000 in prize money.
