In fact, ballet companies did not exist in the Midwest when I was a child.

There is pain and sacrifice in everyone's world. That's why, when I was dancing, I had no pain.

The body can do amazing things in a situation when it is really called for.

I loved tests because it was another form of competing, a healthy competition.

I liked tap, because I liked hearing the results of my movements.

But what was my motivation was music, and the fact that I love to move around. I'm always moving around.

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