Maximus Turner, 8, and Liliana, 6, pose while shopping at a grocery store. Maximus Turner choreographed an at-home ballet recital for himself and his sister during the coronavirus pandemic.

*When 8-year-old Maximus Turner wasn’t able to participate in his dance studio’s end-of-year recital, first because of the coronavirus pandemic, and later because of his family’s military move, Maximus choreographed his own at-home recital.

Maximus recruited his 6-year-old sister Liliana for the performance, which his mom filmed and shared on Instagram in June.

“I love doing recitals,” Maximus told “Good Morning America.” “I love when I get to learn new tricks and when I get to practice ballet.”

Maximus, who now lives with his mom, sister and dad — a member of the U.S. Army — in Alabama, has been dancing “nonstop” since the age of 2, according to his mom, Michelle Turner.

“He’s always doing aerials and stuff in our living room,” she said. “He dances nonstop. It’s in his bones.”
