he performed on Little Big Shots.
From Murrieta, California, please welcome Artyon.
How long have you been dancing?
>> I've been dancing since I was four cuz my brother,
Arthur, took a dance class, so I wanted to take one and I took one.
And my teacher thought I was good so I got to move up with my brother.

So, your brothers name is Arthur and your name is Artian, is that right?

What kind of dance is your favorite dance?
>> My favorite dance is Tap cuz I get to make really good musicality.
>> Its a smart answer.
Musicality. Fancy.
And how long will it take usually to memorize a routine that you do?
Well, usually it takes me 30 minutes but my mom videotapes me,
so I can go over it at home.

So that helps, right?
