US-born Precious Adams is a rising star of English ballet.

After training at some of the world's most prestigious ballet schools - including the Bolshoi Academy in Moscow - she was promoted to first artist by the English National Ballet in 2017, and won the Emerging Artist Award at the Critics' Circle National Dance Awards last year.

She talks to BBC 100 Women about representation, balancing roles with being a role model, and embracing her imperfections.
