I think a sense of humor will help get a girl out of a dark place.

The great ones never take fundamentals for granted.

I was valedictorian. Did I enjoy going to school? I hated it. It wasn't a choice on my part, it was expected.

Doing is better than not doing, and if you do something badly you'll learn to do it better.

I started formal piano training when I was 4. From there I had little violas, and I had dancing lessons of every sort and description, and painting lessons. I had German. And shorthand.

The rewards of dancing are very different from choreographing.

In those days, male dancers were a rarer breed than women. as they are still today, A good male dancer, one as strong as we were, was very difficult to come by if you couldn't afford to pay them.
