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

I used to love to play dress-up, where you get your mother's or your grandmother's dresses and high heels. ↗

I'm thought of as a cool, unemotional dancer, but inside I'm not. ↗

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. ↗
