Don't ever get wrapped up with what other people think you should look like.

Dance improves your ability to concentrate because your brain has to work in so many ways. You're being stretched physically and mentally. You've got to focus on the steps and you have to communicate and interact with people.

Dance allows confidence to grow and inhibitions to fall away, and I pride myself on building people's confidence.

Dance releases endorphin chemicals into your brain and makes you feel alive and wanting to get on with the rest of your day. That positivity can help you to communicate better with other people because it gives you a much better mind set. Socially it brings you together with people.

We do a lot of talking with our mouths, but we don't necessarily realize the signals we give out physically with our body posture when we're talking to people.

If you want to take dance to an extra level, you have to be physically fit. You also have to put the years of work in. If there's no pain, there's no gain. You've got to sweat to improve.

Don't ever get wrapped up with what other people think you should look like.
