DANCE & CHOREOGRAPHY

Sarah Todd has been an avid dancer since she was three years old. During her two month hospital stay after her injury, returning to dance was constantly on her mind. She was fortunate in her recovery to regain the ability to use her legs, but her arms were another story. She started dancing again once she stood on her tip-toes in physical therapy, but after doing the dances she already knew, she quickly realized that modifications needed to be made. So, she adjusted the arm movements to make them suitable for her body, which led to her discovering her love for choreography. Now, Sarah Todd has choreographed several dances, and she uploads them to her YouTube channel.
