There's a huge pressure as a judge. It was difficult. I certainly didn't enjoy that factor, because it's a big responsibility to have a million dollars in your hand to change somebody's life.

Pressure doesn't exist. We create it for ourselves.

I wouldn't say I'm the "nice" judge, but I was certainly reminded a couple of times that this is for a million dollars. There's one thing to just do a good dance, but I had to ask myself, "Is that the million-dollar dance?" There are certain dances that people prefer, and I preferred the intelligent and smart choreography.

I always want to be the best at what I do. That doesn't mean compared to other people, but just in what you do.

Id like to do Broadway if the right project came along, but my mission in life is that I want to help change peoples lives.

My character Jack in the New York Spring Spectacular is a lot of fun. He's playful, he's full of life. He can make things come to life. He can make things happen.

I enjoy being a student and learning. I don't think you should ever stop being a student. That's where the most creative ideas come from. Teaching is a blessing as well because I get to share what I've learned and my passion for creative movement with people.
