:00:23. > :00:24.Welcome to The National Lottery Live, where we
:00:25. > :00:27.have two amazing opportunities for you to win huge sums of money.
:00:28. > :00:29.That?s right, not long to go until this evening?s
:00:30. > :00:33.Coming up, global megastar, and tonight?s good luck charm,
:00:34. > :00:39.Anastacia will be popping by to push that Lotto button.
:00:40. > :00:41.Now, with the National Lottery Awards just weeks
:00:42. > :00:44.away, we?re taking a closer look at some of the shortlisted projects.
:00:45. > :00:47.First up, the fiercely contested Arts category, with seven fantastic
:00:48. > :00:53.We enlisted the help of DJ and presenter Melvin Odoom to take
:00:54. > :00:56.a glimpse into Boys Dancing, a West Midlands based initiative helping
:00:57. > :00:59.young men improve their fitness and confidence through dance.
:01:00. > :01:17.Dave, why did you set up Boys Dancing? I had an inspirational
:01:18. > :01:23.dance teacher. It changed my life. So, I want to give young people the
:01:24. > :01:27.opportunity to try out dance. To see whether they like it or not. Be
:01:28. > :01:31.creative. Then dedecide for themselves whether they want to
:01:32. > :01:36.continue. How crucial is the National Lottery funding to your
:01:37. > :01:40.project? Vitally important. Without the funding, it wouldn't happen. How
:01:41. > :01:45.does it feel to be shortlisted for the National Lottery Awards? It's
:01:46. > :01:50.just been incredible. I mean, I think already it's raised the
:01:51. > :01:56.profile of what we do. If, the only thing it does, is get more boys into
:01:57. > :02:00.the classes, then I'm really happy. These guys are going for it right
:02:01. > :02:05.now. I would never have had the confidence to do anything like that
:02:06. > :02:09.at that stage. How did you get involved in Boys Dancing? Well, the
:02:10. > :02:16.project came to a youth centre that I used to go to. It was the first
:02:17. > :02:21.time I saw young men my age doing aerobatic and fluid movement. It
:02:22. > :02:27.blew my mind. I had been afraid of being on stage. School drama,
:02:28. > :02:31.performances I would go for the part with no words, or stand in the
:02:32. > :02:36.corner. I started performing in Boys Dancing, it brought out a confidence
:02:37. > :02:43.I didn't know I had. I'm free and let people see me for me. Can you
:02:44. > :02:52.teach me the lift. Wish we luck, guys! Ready? 1-2-3! Oh... Thank you.
:02:53. > :02:57.APPLAUSE Thank you. That's how it's done,
:02:58. > :03:03.guys! It looked like he was enjoying that.
