Um, check out this incredible performance by a force of badassery @therealangelarockwood - ❤️you, 💛 this, girl! #Repost @therealangelarockwood with @get_repost ・・・ "Let nothing take away your Sexy!" __________________ YASSSSSSS! Here is one of the performance from this weekend's dancing with my bff & dancer extraordinaire @autiangel with her dance partner @official_ceraldo for the Human Abilities Festival at the Long Beach Aquarium. Auti was a backup dancer for many of the well knowns such as LL Cool J, Kid & Play and NWA until a devastating car accident paralyzed her from the waist down. She definitely did not let that stop her, in fact she would sneak out of the hospital to STILL party, dance and live her life like before. She pioneered wheelchair hip-hop dancing worldwide and continues to Be a Powerhouse. I met Auti the third day I arrived at the rehab facility when I was injured in my incident and it was an instant connection. I am proud to call this goddess Survivor one of my most beautiful and REAL best of friends. This past weekend, I rolled up on this stage and had the blessings of dancing with my best friend after being injured for 17 years. STAY TUNED for tomorrows post of our dance together and REMEMBER, IT'S OUR CHOICES THAT SHOW WHAT WE TRULY ARE, FAR MORE THAN OUR ABILITIES. Keep doing what YOU love no matter what life throws at you because you either let it Define you, Destroy you or Strengthen you!!! 💋🔥💥✨🌟#MotivationwithAnge #MotivationMonday #morethandancers

Repost from @therealangelarockwood "If You Can't Stand Up, well you better STAND OUT!" ✨✨💪💋✨ __________________ HERE IT IS! FINALLY. The video from mine & my BFF @autiangel first dance performance together (@chairlies_angels ) at the Long Beach Aquarium for the Human Abilities Festival! Some of you may know, I was rendered a quadriplegic from a distracted driving incident. When I tell people that I'm paralyzed from the neck down, they always say, "But you can move your arms!" Yes, I can move my arms to some degree. I have my biceps & some deltoid muscles that are functioning. But I do not have triceps (the muscles to push away) or my right pectoral muscle hence the reason why I cannot put my arms straight in front of me or they will bend. I'm not able to open my hands or grasp due to lack of dexterity but I intertwine everything in my fingers to do my makeup, eat and everything else 😉😁 hahaha! If you lay me down on the bed, I'm unable to sit up or roll over. I would just be a bobblehead. 😂 So realistically, I am paralyzed from the neck down. My best friend is a paraplegic, paralyzed from the waist down. I share all of this so people can understand the difference between an individual with Quadriplegia & Paraplegia. This weekend was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime moment because I was able to go on stage LIVE & dance after being injured for 17 years with my dearest best friend! PLEASE CHECK OUT THE REST OF MY INSTAGRAM because I have shared other videos with my girlfriend & her performance. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO LIVE W/ THE ATTITUDE: "I CAN. I WILL. END OF STORY." Let nothing get past you! It just goes to show, never to underestimate the Power & PASSION that you have from within for anything to do what you Love regardless of circumstances on the outside! Sometimes, you might just blow your own damn mind! 💥💪 Have a Rockin Warrior Wednesday! Be strong & keep shining! #MotivationwithAnge _______ Dress: @bebe_stores Shoes: @marciano Corset: @autiangel closet😂 Necklace: @lisa_kline_style Turtleneck: my closet w/ ✂️✂️ (at Aquarium of the Pacific)
