Ballet found me. I was discovered by a teacher in middle school. I always danced, my whole life. I never had any training, never was exposed to seeing dance, but I always had something inside of me.

I will never reach perfection.

I shouldn't even be wearing a tutu. I don't have the right legs, my muscles are too big.
Misty Copeland
Image
I think I always felt a connection to music and to movement. Growing up, I was surrounded by R&B and Hip-Hop, and the closest thing I could find to dance was gymnastics which I watched on TV.
Misty Copeland
Image
I think that training is the key, definitely, and I devoted my life to it.

Without my mentors there is no Misty.
Misty Copeland
Image
Different mentors throughout my life have supported and guided me to remember that I do have the strength, courage and talent to do whatever I want to do.
Misty Copeland

I just try to approach every opportunity on stage, as if it's my first time and my last time.
Misty Copeland
Image
I learned how to communicate and articulate myself from ballet. It's just insane to me, when they don't think of that as a part of our education.
Misty Copeland
Image
I'm a pescatarian, so I don't eat red meat or pork. So my dinners usually consist of seafood in some way. And maybe cookies after!

My goal has always been to be a principal dancer with ABT.
