“It's not magic! It's physics. The speed of the turn is what keeps you upright. It's like a spinning top.”

“I have lots of interests, but it's true that dancing is a very full-time job.”

“It's another myth that dancing distorts or destroys your feet. If you have the right shaped foot to start and a good, strong technique, your feet should be fine.”

“Because muscle is heavier than fat, dancers weigh more than you might think, but they are usually very lean.”
