Early life

Sarah Hay was brought up in Princeton, New Jersey and New York City, alongside her older brother and sister.[2] Her grandmother was an art dealer in New York City, and her grandfather is a member of the New York Philharmonic.[2] Hay's parents are both psychologists.[3] Her godmother is magician’s assistant Debbie McGee. She began attending dance classes at the age of three and later attended the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School of Ballet at the American Ballet Theatre.[4] She later explained that while she was popular at normal school, at the ballet school she was considered to be a "loser" because she wasn't from a wealthy background.[5] She described herself as a "troublemaker" during her childhood, and only decided to pursue ballet professionally when she was a teenager.

Once she decided to become a professional ballet dancer, she sacrificed other pursuits, saying in a 2015 interview with the New York Post that she "had a few relationships fall apart because of it."[6] While others have described her as "workaholic," she prefers "motivated."[6] At the age of 22, she moved to Germany to join the Dresden based Semperoper ballet.[7]
