“The best thing is to lie in a warm Epsom salts bath for 15 minutes and...” — Darcey Bussell Quote

The best thing is to lie in a warm Epsom salts bath for 15 minutes and then go straight to bed. You will sleep really well afterwards.

I'm a size 8-10. I never weigh myself - I go on how tight my jeans are.

You don't just become a success overnight.

I was pretty rubbish when I first started dancing. I didn't understand the discipline of working on one step over and over again. If you look at it from the outside, you'd think, 'Why would anybody want to do that?' But you just want to get it perfect. It is that constant inner striving that you fall in love with.

Ballet requires movements which are very unnatural. With every step, you do a circular movement of the hip. You turn out from the hip and make your knees point out to the side instead of forward.

There were days I'd wrestle at 9 o'clock, and afterward, I often didn't shower and would just throw on sweatpants. I had my police gear in the car and would rush to get to the station by 10:30, clean myself off as best I could, and be ready for my shift by 10:59.

I'm not selfish before a fight or afterwards, but for the time of the fight itself, I have to think totally of myself.

Birth was something that came quite unexpectedly, and afterwards there was one child more in the house.

For me, it's all about having the performers feel confident in their movements and surroundings. And then I'll figure out how to photograph it afterward.
