I Was Very Much Of A Tomboy.

So Dancing Was Not Something I Had A Great Desire To Do.

I Used To Love To Play Dress-up, Where You Get Your Mother's Or Your Grandmother's Dresses And High Heels.

I Set As My Goal To Be The Best Dancer I Could Be. Not The Most Famous, Or The Highest Paid Dancer, Just The Best I Could Be. Out Of This Discipline Came Great Freedom And Calm.

I Liked Tap, Because I Liked Hearing The Results Of My Movements.

I Loved The Stage Not Because It Provided An Escape From Myself Or My Humdrum Life But Because When The Curtain Went Up I Could Be Whoever I Wanted To Be, And That Was True Freedom - To Be Myself.
