"We haven't done any serious ballet since we left Japan for Hawaii about 18 months ago," Yoko told the China Mail.
"But we can't take the risk of losing qur touch and we practise every day.

"It is very interesting and so far our income depends on this style of dancing."

"Good old fashioned ballet," they agree.
