*****************************************
What was the first ballet you saw?
The first ballet I ever saw was Coppelia at Teatro alla Scala in 2009. It was a magical experience, and I remember thinking: one day I want to be on that stage and dance like they do.
Why do you dance?
I dance because dance is what I am and it means everything to me. It is a way for me to express myself and be happy and in a place where I don't have to worry about anything.
Why do you think ballet is relevant today?
Ballet is definitely relevant today because it is an opportunity to watch art and beauty on a stage, and it still gives you goosebumps when you go watch a show. Ballet never gets old and families love to go on a ballet night!
