"Only good thing about watching myself in that video of #ballet class (I HATE watching myself BTW) is I get 2 spot technical #dance flaws that have crept in over time. Here's mine: if u can't feel urself stretching it, ur NOT stretching it. Legs, feet, arms, neck, all included."

"When we get back in the #ballet studio, once this pandemic panic subsides, your teachers + choreographers will know what you've been doing while you were social distancing. I challenge you to come back BETTER than when we last saw you #dance!"

"You may never be the best #ballet #dancer in the company, but, in order to be in the conversation, you have to become the best #ballet #dancer YOU can be! All it takes is daily dedication to honing and polishing your craft."

"Try to never start a movement from dead stillness. It's easier and more efficient to subtly start a step by deepening your plié or fondú and finding more turnout before you initiate your movement. Redirect your energy rather than starting from a static position." #ballet #dance

"Modern humans never use their toes. Instead, they're encased in leather + foam + composite soles do the rocking + walking for us. #Ballet #dancers need to strip away the artifice and learn to articulate the feet fully and gracefully. And, grace comes from strength and mobility."

"When you're in modern class, you have my permission to do modern technique. When ur in contemporary or hip hop, do that technique in that class. But, DON'T bring that technique into my #ballet class! When you're being classically trained, do classical technique ONLY, #dancers!"
