Stunning

This is from a dance competition in China.

The woman, a trained dancer since childhood, “lost her right arm in an accident and lived the next several years in a state of deep depression. When asked to coach a dance group for children she was reminded of her love of dancing and began to attempt some of her old dance routines. The loss of her arm affected her balance and it was difficult to turn without falling.

Then she heard of a man that had lost his leg in an accident who had also fallen into depression. She found him and attempted to persuade him to dance with her. He had never danced and to ‘dance with one leg .... are you joking with me? No way!’ But, she didn't give up, and he reluctantly agreed thinking, ‘I have nothing else to do anyway.’

She started to teach him dancing 101. The two broke up a few times because he had no concept of using muscle, how to control his body, and knew none of the basic things about dancing. When she became frustrated and lost patience with him, he would walk out.

Eventually, they came back together and started training seriously. They hired a choreographer to design routines for them. In the competition, as you will see, they dance beautifully and they legitimately won the competition.”
