I just heard music and wanted to dance, wanted to be in a company, and wanted to make it my life. (Verdon Gwen)
I was very happy that I was as normal as possible before I went into serious dance. (Verdon Gwen)
I learned to love dance for its own sake. (Verdon Gwen)
It's a wonderful thing to be able to dance, to tell your body what you want it to do. (Verdon Gwen)
I had a wonderful childhood, coming from Cincinnati, and I think that it was great going into the life that I was going to have, where you have to start young as a dancer. (Verdon Gwen)
So dancing was not something I had a great desire to do. (Verdon Gwen)
We have to dance, dance now, dance a lot, dance hard, dance fast, ... I still feel it in my ankles. (Verdon Gwen)
It upset me because I put in over 250 hours of practice for this show ... and just because I had ballet when I was a kid, maybe it helped, but I was never the kind of dancer that I became during this competition, and I had never done ballroom dancing. (Verdon Gwen)
I was the kid who took every dance class, but I wasn't a serious dancer. (Verdon Gwen)
Dancing is a sweat job. (Verdon Gwen)
Disco is just jitterbug. (Verdon Gwen)
I don't want to be the oldest performer in captivity... I don't want to look like a little old man dancing out there. (Verdon Gwen)
I have no desire to prove anything by dancing. I have never used it as an outlet or a means of expressing myself. I just dance. I just put my feet in the air and move them around. (Verdon Gwen)
The higher up you go, the more mistakes you are allowed. Right at the top, if you make enough of them, it's considered to be your style. (Verdon Gwen)
This search for what you want is like tracking something that doesn't want to be tracked. It takes time to get a dance right, to create something memorable. (Verdon Gwen)
I went to dance classes from 9 in the morning until 1, then to school from 3 to 10 at night, always under the threat that if I failed a single course I could forget about dancing. (Verdon Gwen)
My first vocation was dance. (Verdon Gwen)
On my fifth film, it was then that I stopped dancing. (Verdon Gwen)
Choreography is mentally draining, but there's a pleasure in getting into the studio with the dancers and the music. (Verdon Gwen)
Dance is for everybody. I believe that the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people. (Verdon Gwen)
I always want more. (Verdon Gwen)
