    remember‚ but I have been told that I was just about three. I started out at a studio that I cannot remember‚ doing ballet and tap. Yet‚ because my entire class would have been so young it can hardly be considered dance‚ but rather a general physical activity with friends. When I was about to turn six my entire family moved‚ so I changed studios to the one I am at. I still only did tap and ballet for about three years‚ when I started to fall behind because everyone else was taking jazz and contemporary.

    I think a great dancer--even one coming in from an alien tradition--always contributes in substantial ways to the artistic life or "health" of a company. (I prefer the term "life" to "health.") I imagine many ballet fans would have lot to say about which dancers’ departures would most impact their favorite companies too. I don’t think the Royal needs Osipova or‚ in the past‚ "needed" Guillem. But having a remarkable external talent also has an impact on a company. In fact‚ I should think it’s likelier

    Text: Mao’s Last Dancer I chose the autographical novel ‘Mao’s Last Dancer’‚ composed by Li Cunxin‚ as it has several themes that convey the idea of a journey. It is physical in the way Li Cunxin had to work hard to be a professional ballet dancer and it is also mental as it is a road to self-discovery. The autobiography is also extremely inspirational and inscribed in first person‚ therefore this allows the reader to see the personal journey of Li. I believe this text also relates to Shakespeare’s

    Many people value dance in a different way. When I say the word “dance”‚ I do not mean the jumping up and down at a party; I mean ballet‚ tap‚ jazz‚ contemporary and the many other styles in this world. Dancers are looked at as a piece of artwork‚ when they are so much more. Although they are bringing an artist’s piece to life‚ the dancers are the athletic aspect of the whole piece. Working just as hard or even harder‚ dancers are still not considered athletes. With all of the opportunities that
