Two Sisters Steal The Show With An Inspirational Dance Routine In Wheelchairs

March 3, 2014

Gracie is only 9 years old and despite being confined to a wheelchair, she doesn't see herself as disabled. She proved that by winning a dance competition with her sister at the Jamfest Super Nationals last weekend.

Gracie has been dancing since she was three years old. She uses a wheelchair due to cerebral palsy and cystic fibrosis.

Both sisters start the routine in wheelchairs, mirroring eachother's movements.

The routine incorporates the use of a mirror to illustrate the lyrics to the song 'Reflection' and to show how Gracie feels liberated on the inside despite her disability.

This was the first time the girls appeared a national stage and there wasn't a dry eye in the arena.
