I loved doing ballet. I trained for two years.
I do ballet and pointe work. I also do tap, commercial jazz and technical jazz, freestyle street dancing.
There was a period of time when I studied ballet a lot when I was growing up.
So I'm studying ballet every day and really training so people will see me as a ballet dancer, which no one's seen before.
'Swan Lake' is the most difficult thing to portray for a female ballet dancer; it really requires such specific qualities of articulation, agility, strength, and the arm work is something that takes a lot of training.
I take ballet class as often as possible - up to 5 times a week - and try to go to the gym on the days that I don't take class. I also do a floor barre/Pilates mat class almost everyday.
Ballet dancers are among the greatest living athletes.
I'm always ballet ready.
There might've been wires, but I have this ability to make myself light. Well you know what, in ballet, when you kind of lift yourself here, it's all up in the head.
I had classical training at London's Royal Ballet School, and my first job was with the Semperoper Dresden ballet company in Germany.
I studied dance for about 15 years, various disciplines, with classical ballet as my primary.
If I could say what my dream role to dance was that I didn't get to do, if I had to choose one, it would be Giselle in 'Giselle.'
