There's nobody knows more about dancing and choreography than Arlene Phillips, ever.
I think I'm the same dancer everywhere. But I've learned a lot with Bolshoi - the history of the theater, the technique of the theater, different nuances in my technique.
I know basic things about belly dancing, but not the technicalities; I want to learn it. I want to learn belly dancing.
People often say to me, 'I don't know anything about dance.' I say, 'Stop. You got up this morning, and you're walking. You are an expert.'
Hip is the knowledge and Hop is the movement.
Like most fans of 'So You Think You Can Dance,' I wouldn't know a pasodoble if it beat me with a rake.
I go through phases of watching a ton of dance/performance, and I am bizarrely well-informed on the subject.
A good dancer is an educated one, so don't abandon school.
