I didn't take the typical path and go to college after high school. Instead, I saved up money from teaching dance classes and moved to L.A. But my family was so supportive - I never felt pressure from them. It's crucial to find a support system, even if it's not your family. -- Dianna Agron
If I'm dancing, or teaching, or having a family I would want to live life to the fullest as possible. -- Lacey Schwimmer

You spend your life having lessons, practising and competing as an amateur, and working during the day. As you get to the top end of the amateur field, you try not to work anymore; you earn your living through dancing, maybe by doing a bit of teaching. It's an ongoing life's work. -- Anton du Beke
Mr. Balanchine wanted me to be myself. He didn't want me to look like anyone else. I love teaching our company dancers the Balanchine ballets.

With dance, it's about education. I'm teaching a lot. I teach the foundations of hip-hop. -- Stephen Boss
