What advice would you give a young dancer?
Be curious, work hard, and remember that there are so many ways of dancing. You might not fit a certain role or company, but then find you’re perfect for another.

What’s the biggest myth about ballet?
That it’s elitist. It may have originated as the art form of royalty, but now dancers come from all kinds of backgrounds.

What keeps you awake at night?
Worrying about the future of dance. It’s up to us, as the new generation of dancers, to persuade people that it’s as relevant to them as electronic gadgets.
