When I grow up I am going to be a ballerina. I will be in Giselle. It will be so much fun being a ballerina.

Canadians are very proud of me, of my career.

In the world of classical ballet there are only a handful of story ballets, so getting a new one is cause for excitement.

Dancers, like all performing artists, like nothing better than to be challenged.

Surround yourself with people who provide you with support and love and remember to give back as much as you can in return.

There's nothing like the force and challenge of a new ballet to galvanize everyone involved in bringing it to life.

Like everyone else, I want to go on dancing forever, but I know the day is going to come when I will have to be doing something else.
