Each style excites him at different times and challenges him in different ways. Haden loves spending as much time as possible with his dance family and participating in competitions and conventions. He calls it, “my happy place”. When Haden is not dancing he loves swimming, pickle-ball, volleyball, and taking voice and piano lessons. Haden also enjoys spending time with his family and friends. He loves being at the beach, swimming in the pool, and loves all animals. When Haden is inside he likes to do crafts, paint, and make videos. This year, Haden was so excited to be invited to participate on the high school varsity dance team at school as just an 8th grader. He was so thankful for the trust they put in him and also excited to be the first boy on the team.
