Of course, in the art class, I was the model.

Treat each class as if it were your first.

I was very much of a tomboy.

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

Fifth positions, heads, musicality, energy. Not technical things so much-getting your leg higher or doing more turns but things that would set you apart from other dancers. The only way you can be different is to be yourself if you don't find your spirit and reveal it, you just look like every other dancer.

So dancing was not something I had a great desire to do.

After I stopped dancing, I was unable to listen to beautiful music.
