Without that thick skin and a clear vision of what it is you want to do, what it is you know you want to do, it can be really easy to get out here and get lost and swept away in whatever is going on. You really have to be steadfast in the mind for sure.

Being a fan of dance and a dancer, I love my classic dance movies.

I'm a Gatorade athlete because dance is being recognized as a sport now. It always should have been, but now it is. It's very exciting.

As far as the performance aspect, I'm going to be an actor. I still love performing, but I'm moving into more acting.

Dance is an art, so day by day, it's growing and there are new things that can be done.

The life of a dancer is not for everyone. You really have to have some thick skin. You really have to know what you're going into and how competitive the field is.

People can stand around and share movement with each other, whether it's professional or not. That's how it grows. That's what dance does. It's its own language.
