Bianca Teixeira – San Francisco Ballet

Why did I choose ballet? It is more like dance has chosen me. It’s who I am and it is how I can express and share all of my emotions with people. It’s how I give people love best without saying one word. It is how I show that the imperfections makes each one of us unique and special.

I love that I don’t see my job as a job! There is not one day where I don’t love what I’m doing. Of course I get tired, it’s painful and not easy, but is priceless to see that every day you can get even better than you were yesterday.

In difficult moments, what motivates me most is thinking that I’m never alone! That God is within me and my Family are always there even when I am so far from home. They have always taught me to have faith and to never give up. That gives me strength and inspiration!

My working day always starts with 1:15 min Class and then 7/8h of rehearsals, gyrotonic, pilates and extra exercises. I always have to saw and prepare my pointe shoes and to be well and healthy to perform… So the food i also very important. I also love to read and write when I can.

We must also remember that everything is constantly changing! Nothing is never the same, so every day we can be better and we can make people around us feel amazing only with a smile or a „Thank you”… Being mindful.

That for me is the simplest things and actions that matters the most! And this thought that we are never alone, God is within us. 

Making people happy makes me happy.
