For many years now, messages have been explained through various ways of communication other than language. Dance is one of them. Art can promote positive stories, emotions, or events. Sometimes it can bring out the beauty and the positives out of something that is generally seen as negative or unfavorable.
This particular dance tells the story of a woman with breast cancer and her personal fight to beat it. Dancing with her is her partner who is there to help guide her along the way. This choreography is a beautiful way of sharing the struggles, fears, and hopefulness that someone experiencing breast cancer has to deal with. Also, the people surrounding the sick have to deal with those struggles, fears, and hopefulness as they deal with their very own.

At the end of the video, a couple of the judge's say how millions of people will be affected by the dance. This is because millions of people have experienced the disease themselves or know somehow who has. It is amazing how one single illness can touch so many people directly or indirectly.
According to Suzi Hong and others in their article, "Correlates of physical activity level in breast cancer survivors participating in the Women's Health Eating and Living (WHEL) Study," physical activity is a sure way to help prevent illness, including breast cancer. She states, "studies have shown that regular physical activity is beneficial in relieving cancer-related symptoms and improving the [quality of life] of breast cancer patients and survivors." Exercising regularly improves your cardiovascular system, making it easier to do difficult tasks, and increases muscle strength. Also, endorphins are released throughout the body during and after working out, which boosts your mood. So dance not only shows a beautiful side to breast cancer, it also helps prevention and recovery (Hong).
