You can't reduce lactic acid, but you can increase your tolerance to it. I do this through running or cycling, but it's a good idea to match your training bout to the type of dance you do.

Young dancers are training at a very vulnerable time in their lives... So train the whole person, not just the dancer.

I enjoy the freedom of modern dance as well as the constraints of classical dance.

Body language is a very powerful tool. We had body language before we had speech, and apparently, 80% of what you understand in a conversation is read through the body, not the words.

It's not about weight, it's about fitness, and one component of being fit is to have relatively low body fat, because fat is not very efficient, whereas muscle is.

At the moment I'm enjoying a new challenge at the Royal Opera House, but I'm also keen to pursue my interest in television and particularly in science.

A good dancer is an educated one, so dont abandon school.

Hey, our hair's the same color, " I said, eying us side by side in the mirror."Sure is, girlfriend." Eric grinned at me.

Death drives desire.

I always wonder what drives us as Artists.

As a rule, I do not approve of messing around with coffee. No sugar, no milk, no chocolate, hazelnuts, cinnamon, no nothing.... Just drink it black, the way God does

In a world of such beauty as birds in flight, surely I can come to feel at home again, even after my loss.

Sun, silence, and happiness.

Let's respect the dignity of women to make their own decisions about the size and timing of their families.

It seems to me the Washington Monument is a symbol of America’s power. It has been the symbol of our great nation, we look at that monument and we say this is one nation under God.

Whoever would have his body supple, easy and healthful should learn to dance.

From its earliest beginnings, golf has been a gentleman's game - to be played as much for the sake of the game as for the contest.
