I Can't Really Hear The Audience Applause When I'm On Stage. I'm Totally Immersed In The Piece. But Sometimes I Get A Lot Of It And Wonder, "now, Why Did They Applaud Here?" If It's A White Crowd, They Usually Applaud Because They Think It's A Pretty Movement. If It's A Black Crowd, It's Usually Because They Identify With The Message.

Concert Dance Is The Hardest Kind Of Dance. We Tour Constantly, Around The World, Year In And Year Out. It Just Doesn't Work For Everybody. It's The Lifestyle, It's The Stamina, It's The Love, It's The Dedication, It's The Commitment, It's All Those Words.
