I learned very early that an audience would relax and look at things differently if they felt they could laugh with you from time to time. There`s an energy that comes through the release of tension that is laughter.
I don`t think politicians should be allowed into power who are not familiar with their bodies, because that`s where our bottom line is. And I know that they would make totally different decisions if they felt responsible simply for their own bodies.
I never studied with Balanchine, but his work was very important to me.
