RETURN TO QUOTES

In my time at English National Ballet, all my main ballerinas have been mothers or have become mothers while they were lead ballerinas. I have seen that they have been more resolute, more passionate, more efficient, better artists, better dancers. It has always been for the better.

Tamara Rojo, The Times 2022
