ITF DANCER ANKIT CHAURASIYA BANDA

My name is Ankit Chaurasia and I belong to Banda, a small district of Uttar Pradesh. Dance is my passion. Since childhood, I loved to dance. Whenever I got time, I used to practice. My family consists of parents, 2 brothers and one sister. My father used to support me a lot in dance, everything was going well but at the time of Covid pandemic, my father passed away suddenly due to which the responsibility of the house fell on me and I started running my father’s shop but whenever I got time. I would practice dancing. There came many times in my life when I felt that I should give up dance, but in those bad times, my family and my brother supported me a lot. My father had a dream since childhood that I should grow up and become a famous dancer. To fulfill that dream, I auditioned in ITF and got selected for the semi-final.
I want to make my dad, my city and my family proud by winning the ITF trophy.
