I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.

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

I started out as a dancer as a kid; I've been dancing since I was 4. So performing was always part of what I was.

I've never really done acting before, 'cause dancing was my first love. And then, I sort of fell into it from a talent competition and never really looked back.

I was a dancer first, which made me realize how much I loved performing.

My mom was a huge fan of 'Dirty Dancing.' I couldn't quite get a break, and she was like, 'Patrick Swayze was a dancer!' And Fred Astaire. I started dancing, and it led me to acting. It helps with fighting or whatever choreography in general.

I was able to actually combine dance and acting, which was a dream come true.

When I was a dancer, I was acting.

I used to dance when I was younger - ballet and modern dance.

I was a dancer for many years. I was a premier dancer with 'Porgy and Bess,' the opera. And I taught dance some, in different places.
