There are two ways of being creative. One can sing and dance. Or one can create an environment in which singers and dancers flourish. ↗

I will say a lot of dancers do such beautiful things for their body and then they smoke a cigarette. I've never been a smoker, but I realized after taking yoga . . . in ballet you're not encouraged to do a lot of breathing. I think in a weird way, a lot of dancers find relief in actually breathing. ↗

Independent dance - and, fine, it's a very good thing that it remains independent - is a much tougher life: all dancers expect that, and accept that there will be periods of not being able to work, provided there are choice moments during the year when they really can work. ↗

Dancers, like all performing artists, like nothing better than to be challenged. ↗

People strangely revere dance. They see it as another world, and dancers are somehow mysterious - just because they don't speak. ↗

Young dancers are training at a very vulnerable time in their lives, through adolescence, and while they are trying to work out who they are as people, never mind as a dancer. So train the whole person, not just the dancer. ↗
