I took ballet dancing forever, and there was a natural transition into acting.

I frequently go to the ballet, but I don't miss it in the sense that I wish I were still dancing.

I have been very lucky to work in so many new ballets, but that is what a dancer's work is.

I didn't care how much work it would take, and I didn't see the time invested as a waste or like I was missing out on anything. Ballet became my ultimate passion.

I used to be a dancer, and for me it was a really good combination of dance and acting.

The particular ballet was not so important as the fact that I was physically healthy, and capable of getting out there and dancing as often as possible.

Dancing is my passion. I started as a dancer.

Ballet is an incredibly difficult, beautiful art form that takes a lot of training, a lot of time, and a lot of hard work.

Well, I took ballet for many, many years, so my whole childhood really revolved around dance class. I grew up around dance; my mother was a dancer.

The challenge is maintaining your interest over a long career, as opposed to pushing hard with no longevity. I'm surprised that I've been able to dance as long as I have.
