She decided to take a chance one day and auditioned for the Royal Ballet School in London.
"I didn't think much of it, I was like ok, I'm just going to send in this video and see what happens," she Thomas, but she was in shock when her mom surprised her with the news.
"My mom woke me up one day and said, you got accepted. And I was like, oh, that's crazy," she said.
