I still dance, probably three times a week, unless I'm working on a crazy job, and then I just don't have any free time at all.

I was always the kid on scholarship, I was a soloist with my company, I'd been working with the symphony since I was 14.

I'm very physical. It's an important part of being a woman - feeling good about yourself and really being in tune with your personality.

There's this certain caliber of dancing I was striving for when I was younger, and it's very hard for me to go back and just do it for fun. But I take all other kinds of classes: I take jazz classes, modern classes, and I love doing that instead of going to the gym. The gym is not very much fun.

As I've gotten older, I've come to realize how important it is to vary your workouts.

When I stopped doing ballet, I started training in the pool. I would do my barre exercises in the water, because that prevents injuries.

After doing 'Firefly' and moving on, I always wanted to be part of a series again. I love doing films, too, but there's just something special about being part of the team and feeling like you're actually a part of the family, and I always look to re-create that.
