Eating a healthy diet is not just about eating a few special foods. There's a bigger picture. You need to practice moderation, eat a variety of foods, and get enough physical activity.

I didn't have any doubts about my choice of career, but I had constant doubts about my ability, yes.

On the other hand, I think it is wonderful for everyone to take ballet classes, at any age. It gives you a discipline, it gives you a place to go. It gives you some control in your life.

I think it was important that I learned to love to dance eventually for its own sake, as opposed to wanting to be a ballerina.

I set as my goal to be the best dancer I could be. Not the most famous, or the highest paid dancer, just the best I could be. Out of this discipline came great freedom and calm.

Once I started dancing, I was not the spoiled brat or the rebellious child that I was as a child.

I learned to love dance for its own sake.
