It was exciting to show my friends that I was a fast learner and extremely flexible- some said I have an old soul.

But it wasn&#8217;t that easy. I noticed when I became better at dancing how much time and patience it took, I said to myself maybe it\u2019s the same thing as dancing. I just have to be patient and not forget where I came from cause that&#8217;ll separate me from the others.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2013\/12\/ERIC1.jpg\" alt=\"ERIC1\" width=\"700\" height=\"490\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61364\" \/><br \/>\n<!--pp-thumb-start--><!--PictPress found no dir \/2013\/12\/61363--><!--pp-thumb-end--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Ramos, Request Model Management NY is no stranger to the streets of NY.
