Quote “[There] was just something about ballet that was so refined and so simple, and it gave me this clean palette just to make something of my own,” said Watters. “I felt like it was so regimented that it was almost giving you the tools to do what you want with it.” Continuing his training, the studio quickly became Watters’ haven, a place where he said he felt comfortable turning up the volume on his identity.
