Get to the Pointe — americas got talent

Y'all flooded our DM's, e-mail inboxes, and tagged us in the mentions - we heard you and delivered.  This week, Josephine watched a very special performance from America's Got Talent All Stars.  Vitoria Bueno is from Brazil and was born without arms. Her parents enrolled her in dance when she was young, which began her journey with dance. Everyone online is buzzing on how beautiful and inspirational her story is, and rightfully so. But what Josephine brings is the ballet perspective. And WOW! It's hard enough to dance en pointe with all four limbs. But what people may not realize...

Josephine reacts to the ballerinas of Hiplet! Hiplet is a dance style that was created in order to make ballet more accessible to all people! It is a mix between hip hop dance, and classical ballet, including pointe work. The Hiplet Ballerinas auditioned for season 16 of America's Got Talent, so of course Josephine had to check it out!  These dancers are extremely passionate, not only about dance, but also about making ballet and the dance world more inclusive! Watch the video to hear their inspiring story and to see Josephine's full reaction!
