In England, ballet is kind of closed. They are opening up a little bit, but it was always something not for the general public. So you don't get fame, like a football star or a film star. And if you don't get fame, you can't do other stuff.

When I was a kid I always liked scratching myself - making shapes, making drawings, and I always thought I would have a tattoo.

The most amazing feeling in the world is destroying. It takes so much strength and patience and time to build, and destruction is fast, fast, fast. Explosive.

A footballer in three weeks earns what a dancer makes in a year.

A few months ago, I was sure that I was going to stop dancing to become a good actor. But then when I was by myself for a week, I asked myself, What are you doing? You have that talent. Use it to the fullest.

It's important not to forget what parents did for you, what friends are.

I always hoped I would be injured so I didn't have to dance any more.

I struggle to get the big companies to trust me, or be willing to work with me.

It's true that I got a bit lost. But that was because I had grown up in a system where I never made my own decisions.

It's not about being modern or classical or about being sexy: it's all about exchanging energies with the audience.
