I approach dancing from a different angle than those who begin dancing at 8 or 9. Those who have studied from the beginning never question anything.
Technique is what you fall back on when you run out of inspiration.
What is art? It is not just nature, it is nurtured nature. It is intelligence applied to what physical ability you have.
You live as long as you dance.
The only critic is a full house.
For me, purity of movement wasn't enough. I needed expression, more intensity, more mind.
