I think every girl needs to love herself, regardless of anything. Like if you’re having a bad day, if you don’t like your hair, if you don’t have the best family situation, whatever, you have to love yourself and you can’t do anything until you love yourself first.
Friends are the best therapy.
When my mind is clear, I feel like I can give more of myself to those around me and hopefully bring light and joy and an infectious kind of energy to inspire them to do whatever they want to do. That’s really the key behind it all.
There is something so rewarding about dancing. It’s almost spiritual – you let loose, you feel free, you get endorphins from the exercise.
Keep believing in yourself, and don’t ever give up, even if people tell you otherwise. Just believe in yourself and take every action you need to get there, whether it’s taking more lessons or a fun, cool job in New York or LA and stepping out of the box. Be a little bit risky, but still confident.
I think it’s important to be happy before you can make anybody else happy.
One of my mantras is if I’m scared to do something, that means that I have to do it.
I’m actually pretty good at stripping, which makes me wonder what happened in my previous life. Funny enough, I don’t wear a lot of clothes when I dance and it’s very sexy, so it wasn’t too hard to get into the motion of it.
I’m very blessed and I don’t take anything for granted. I think if you alienate people and just focus on your work then it just becomes lonely and it’s not fun anymore.
When you dance on your own there is something so magical and so special.
