I read for growth, firmly believing that what you are today and what you will be in five years depends on two things: the people you meet and the books you read.

I don't believe in rushing and saying this is done and over with. That form of rebellion doesn't make sense to me. I've always attempted to familiarize myself with the traditions, and consider that a responsibility of the artist.

If I didn't believe in myself as a dancer, I wouldn't choreograph.

I do believe that when dancing is right, the movement possesses a logic common to us all.
