I've been very physical my whole life. I went out hiking and camping for days in the Australian forest, and when I trained at drama school for three years, we did a whole lot on stage-fighting techniques. And I was a dancer from 5 to 18, so I have a memory for choreography. ↗

— Yvonne Strahovski

I worked with the same trainer that worked with Denzel Washington in THe Hurricane. It was three months of training, five days a week, 4 to 5 hours a day. This was followed by a month of choreography. ↗

To make it more familiar to me, I ended up treating my swordplay scenes like choreography. So it was, 'One and two and three and four and five, and turn and step and down and up and lunge.' ↗

I said, 'I'll give myself two years. If I can't support myself as an actress within two years, then I'll go back to choreography.' ↗

I kind of lost interest in the classical dance. I was very much interested in the modern choreography. ↗
