Hard Quote by Esther Povitsky
“That's how I feel like when I was dancing in high school. The way that I felt like I could get better is if every week I took a class that was too easy for me and a class that was too hard for me, so I could show off in the easy class and then struggle in the hard class, and that was how I feel like I got better.”
