ETA: And here is Amy! Omg, I have no words. She once again showed the world that you can dance no matter what circumstances and that you can do anything you want if you work hard. So beautiful, fun, and passionate. Thank you, Amy!!! And thanks to Al for recording. This video will work internationally too…
Beautiful, powerful, heartfelt, inspiring, uplifting, and breathtaking…absolutely moving. Just like Amy did with Derek on DWTS, she is showing us once again how it’s possible to defy the odds and overcone obstacles through inner strength, positivity, courage, and determination. What a truly meaningful message she is sharing with us. “Live Inspired”…perfect words to live by.
Aww Amy. ?
I love it when she prances around like a beautiful, world-class thoroughbred.
That robot is freaking cool!
Thanks for the reminder and post, Vogue. Her arm/hand movements in the opening were exquisite as was that aerial (she has the most innovative partners ;). It was also great to see her dance Samba: I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult that is on running blades, yet she had rhythm, hips, bounce and FUN! She and dance are quiet taken with each other and its always such joy to watch.
I agree. Just amazing! And so creative too!
You are amazing Amy no on dear we love you so much.
Utterly awesome!!!
Thank you Vogue for sharing this with us.
Amy just blows my mind with her aspiring determination. Loved her dance with her new partner. And, it’s so good to see her continuing with dancing. She is an inspiration for others.
Thanks!! She blows my mind too. It’s like she is a professional out there. Beautiful!
Hmmm…I was a bit disappointed. Although, I love the robots, so that was cool. I think they needed to hire Derek for the choreography. I still love that she’s dancing though even if I wasn’t a fan of this routine.
