I think that training is the key, definitely, and I devoted my life to it.

I remind myself everyday just how lucky I am to do what I love! I feel so fortunate and I'm just trying to take my life one day at a time.

You're always working to improve, and you're always being critiqued on your next performance. It's not about what you've done. There's always room to grow.

That it's possible to do positive things and I think that's how we're going to set an example to be respected as women in the world.

It's difficult to exist as a woman, especially I think as a powerful woman. You want to stand strong and you want to be considered and equal.

I had no idea what I was walking into, and the years and years of hard work it would take. I felt like an outsider and like it was never going to happen. But even if I would have known, I think I still would have done it. Dancers are perfectionists, and that's what keeps us going and growing.

I think anything that affects me in my personal life is going to help me be a better artist on stage.
