My body's weird and bent in different ways, but it's handy for the tango!
I have been blessed with strong leg muscles, and dancing really exercises one's legs.
I found that dance was key to keeping depression out of my life. When you dance, things just go away, things don't seem so bad. There's no better way to take care of health than through something as joyous and beautiful as dance.
But I was 22 before I took my first dance class. I had never been athletic, so I was very stiff; I still am. I think what I got mostly from dance was carriage.
I don't see anything negative about dance. It is so good for you, mentally and physically, and so for me to promote it is the easiest thing to do.
I learned how to communicate and articulate myself from ballet. It's just insane to me, when they don't think of that as a part of our education.
Dance is a physical and mental workout. Once you get your body moving, you'll see a difference.
Since I became a dancer, I have felt much better about myself.
Dancing is a lot lower-impact than ultimate fighting, but it takes a lot longer, and I burn the same amount of calories.
I feel like when I do some dance moves during the week or at the house, I'm quicker on my feet. I can react quicker just from dancing.
Dance connects us to the musicality of life and to one another. No one should be denied such basic pleasures.
This is the strange thing: Dancers don't age.
I love the noise of my wooden clogs on my wooden floor. Dancers wear clogs. They're good for you.
