      The power of imagination can shine a light into our souls where the essence of beauty is discovered and the artistry of performance is born.

      Ballet means everything to me—like the air I breathe and the sun that warms my soul.

      I feel ill before every performance. My stomach churns, my heart races, my palms sweat. But as soon as I step on the stage in front of an audience all that goes away. I become empowered—bold, confident, strong!

      To move an audience we have to be more than just an instrument of the dance. We have to become the art form itself.

      On stage, I am my truest self—the person I want to reveal and project out into the universe.

      What my dancers and I try to do is talk about real life. I want to move people and inspire them to feel good about themselves. I want them to have the desire to have their spirits set free.

      I have been a part of the history of Mexican dance in California for almost forty years. I have gone from social activist to dancer, to dance teacher, to dance artist, to choreographer. I don’t really know where one role ends and the others begin. Maybe all of them are very much still in me.

      Once I felt the heat in my body, I could do anything. I felt such passion for the dance. I even performed when I was sick with fever because I felt the dance would heal me.

      Before every performance I feel a huge emotional weight—the weight of my life. But once I begin to move, the weight lightens and lifts away.

      You usually don’t know how your dancing affects people. But when someone comes up to you after a performance with tears in their eyes and says, “You touched my spirit, you touched my soul,” that’s when you know you’ve made a difference.

      Nature is not a backdrop to life but a dynamic influence. When applied to movement it leads to awareness, creativity, and regeneration.

      To me, the highest compliment I could ever receive is to be called a dancer. A dancer is someone who is God-like.
