I really loved it, but lab courses are impossible on a dancer's schedule. It's just not something you can do in your spare time. I kind of fell into a business role at the Company recently, as a supporter of the Dancers' Resource Fund. The fund was created in 1988 with the idea of raising money to help dancers with career transitions after they retire from the stage. We're doing a pretty good job so far.
Every ballet dancer knows that the career is short and sweet.
Most dancers keep their passion about dance, but the body gets less and less willing. I'm not scared of that time. And somehow I know that it's the right answer.
