Bernadette's Thoughts: Since I was three years old, I imagined and dreamed of myself becoming a ballerina. I have to dance to be happy - it has never been a matter of choice for me. I think of dance as a special gift that reaches it highest value when it is developed and nurtured. This takes many years, often a lifetime. Then, as is the case with all fine gifts, it must be shared. I offer my gift of dance to you.
