There are many wonderful things about getting your kids involved in hobbies when they're young: They get to discover their true passions in life early on, they are given an outlet to be creative in a way that is fun for them, and they learn new ways to express themselves, to name just a few of the perks.
While there are many activities that will allow children to express themselves in unique and exciting ways, dance is one hobby that really encourages its participants to come up with a style all their own and embrace it.
There's no right or wrong when it comes to dance, and new styles of dance are constantly evolving and being being taught and performed each day.
While there are people like Misty Copeland who excel in the art of classical dance styles like ballet, nontraditional dancing like the style seen in Yanis Marhsall's videos have many loyal fans.
The boy in this next video is only 10 years old, but Merrick Hanna has found and perfected his expressive outlet.
The young dance enthusiast has been called "America's best kid popper," due to his amazing freestyle skills, and he hopes to show them off in music videos one day.
Judging by the high-fives and stares he attracted at the train station, we're going to guess that music video stardom he's been dreaming of is not too far away!
If you're blown away by Merrick's dance moves, please SHARE this video with everyone you know!
