Watch
this really great
performance. Truly
remarkable. Here's
the tale behind it:
The lady in her 30s was a dancer and was trained as one since she was
a little girl. Later she got into some kind of accident and lost her
entire left arm. She was depressed for a few years. It seemed that
someone asked her to coach a Children's dancing group. From that
point on, she realized she could not forget dancing. She still loved
to dance. She wanted to dance again. So she started to do some of
her old routines. But by her losing an arm, she also lost her
balance. It took a while before she could even making simple turns and
spins without falling. Eventually she got it.
Then she heard some guy in his 20s had lost a leg in an accident.
This guy also fell into the usual denial, depression and anger type of
emotional roller coaster. She looked him up (seemingly he was from a
different Province) and persuaded 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. He reluctantly agreed. ' I have nothing
else
to do anyway.' She started to teach him dancing 101. The two broke up
a few times because the guy had no concept of using muscle, control
his body, and a few other 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. They hired a
choreographer to design routines for them.
They danced beautifully
and they legitimately beat others in the
competition.
