I'd get sent home from the first audition of So You Think You Can Dance. My dancing is sort of controlled spasms. I fully accept it might appear ridiculous. But it's passionate!

The word spirit comes from the Latin word for breath - spiritu - and the origin of the word spirituality has to do with breath and life force, the mysteries of the ancients and all this.
