Dance and Autism - Amazing Coppelia Video

The little girl in this video is 10 has Autism and a rare genetic disorder that meant she didn't walk until she was 4 and didn't speak until she was 6. And yet she learned a whole solo from Coppelia, completely alone, unknown to anyone and performs it with brilliant musical timing for someone of her age. Dance and learning disability can be a positive combination. I think this article is really inspiring of the power that dance can have.


The article I found this on can be found here,
